The world you created with the TMNT was a huge part of my own childhood, and has become something I share with my own kids through the dvds, movies and books.<br /><br />All that aside, though, it sounds as if you're ready to move on to a new stage in your life. I'm so glad to hear you're able to use the happy memories from this little place to inspire the making of new ones, without getting bogged down in the past. <br /><br />I wish you the best of luck.<br /><br />Rejoicing in the day,<br />-MaryFrom Mary's Penhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01407949771194206134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686991059820767773.post-61901253214295198022010-08-18T07:06:07.848-07:002010-08-18T07:06:07.848-07:00Everything about this house sounds amazing. So man...Everything about this house sounds amazing. So many great things to happen here for you and in turn, us who are fans of your work.<br /><br />Have you considered using it as a vacationing rental home? My fiancée and I look every summer (sometimes winter) to take 1-2 weeks off to stay in Maine or NH, away from everything. (We live in southern Mass).<br /><br />The nostalgia of this place would be a great selling point in renting the home. <br /><br />Also just to throw it out there. I am a licensed carpenter, and I would love to be able to work on this house. I've worked out deals in the past (with vacationing homes in NH) to where I work on the home and in return I get certain weeks to vacation. Win, Win situation.<br /><br />Like I said, just "throwing it out there", because one may never know what may come of it.<br /><br />Good luck to you in whatever choices you make Peter!<br /><br />-DonDonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01345347396677067386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686991059820767773.post-23948447211007909882010-08-17T19:10:45.691-07:002010-08-17T19:10:45.691-07:00Any pictures?

Though that is completely counter productive from the standpoint that you are trying to rid your life of clutter both physical and emotional. <br /><br />However, I must say as a fan of TMNT (and happy marriages) it would certainly be cool to own that spot again. Perhaps you could renew your vows there one day, is that a good enough excuse to consider buying? I also love the idea of a TMNT museum, but I'd be more inclined to say the Mirage building should house that, as it's more spacious and (I believe) not in a residential area. Plus if the house is that far removed from where you live it would require constant care, and if turned in to a museum it would require constant supervision since I imagine it would house valuable items. <br /><br />Either way, it's pretty cool to know it's still standing and in decent shape for you to visit. Perhaps it's best left that way as a memory that you can return to form time to time, without the full time burden of home ownership. <br /><br />I'm sure you must have gotten a picture, which I'd be interested in seeing (maybe you could blur the house numbers or any other relevant info).Adam Richeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11897594543447112497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686991059820767773.post-35732693120187565702010-08-17T13:36:25.717-07:002010-08-17T13:36:25.717-07:00I love the idea of a TMNT Museum,but like in your ...I love the idea of a TMNT Museum,but like in your post it would take too much work and maintaining and the same problem of maintaining it would happen even if using it as a second home. Its one of those things that sound great,but then the realities kick in. <br /><br />It would be be great if a historicla marker sign that cities put up could be done for the house where the TMNT were born at least! Maybe that is sometihng that could be looked into one day!<br /><br />Enjoy your special time with your wife.mikeandraph87https://www.blogger.com/profile/03592342454303147739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686991059820767773.post-68826909390024455252010-08-17T08:55:55.722-07:002010-08-17T08:55:55.722-07:00it would be a beautiful thing to restore a house l...it would be a beautiful thing to restore a house like that and make it into the house that gave life to the tmnt. very much how they did it with the superman house. but thats just so much work to do and very time consuming. one day i really hope there is a tmnt museum, there such a large icon of what was the 80's and 90's and even in todays popularity,<br /><br />i think at some point i may happen but i just it does when im around! :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686991059820767773.post-80335696860675912192010-08-17T06:58:13.269-07:002010-08-17T06:58:13.269-07:00I would love to go to a TMNT museum it would be re...I would love to go to a TMNT museum it would be really cool to seeTMNTboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06675486940530256551noreply@blogger.com
