I see they've included pictures of AS's and E's bedrooms (the stables). Or maybe those are the "prayer closets"? They look like torture chambers to me.

It says the bedrooms are upstairs but it looks like a one level to me. Wow, that is a large house and lots of land for $325K. What is the income source for the Botkin family? Books, tapes, lectures? Anyone have a real job?

Looking at the photo of the front of the house, you can see that there's an upstairs deck on the right side.

Also, the front of their house has no windows. Very odd.

Letgo, you must me new here. We've been talking about how teh Botkins have no apparent source of income for YEARS. :D

Not new. Been reading a long time, registered on the old board, posted, completely forgot my name, registered again. I just can't figure out what they do! Has Mr. B EVER had a job? We know Mrs. B hasn't. So where do they get the money??? Nosey, yes, but I want to know. It fascinates me how well some of these people live without having a job. Or without having some apparent type of self-employment.

Here's a wtf picture I don't think we ever snarked on:

Who is that? And who thinks it's good to (a) drop a cat in front of a dog and (b) take a picture of it?

Grrrrrr. I hope kitty got in a few scratches on the people who did that.

The dark kid is the youngest Thomas boy, Marscel. The blonde one is surely a Botkin offspring, I just don't know the name. And the Niednagels are pretty royal in fundie land. Their son Jordan married a Thomas girl, Melissa, and has a blog. It's insanely ignorant and infuriatingly close-minded. They just think they are the greatest thing ever.

Lucas Botkin and one of the Niednagels, I think.

Where are they moving to? Do we know? These people fascinate me too. Ever since I read the girls' blog posts about David and Nadia's wedding. That wedding looked very strange to me.

20 acres, 6 bedrooms, at $325k?! Is this common for the midwest? I feel like the land alone should be worth more than that. That wouldn't even buy a one bedroom apartment here. Being responsible for 20 acres of land sounds exhausting.

To be fair, I think it's more south than midwest (as a midwesterner). Property prices are MUCH higher around here, but I think for the area they are in, it's not uncommon. Tenesseeans, correct me if I'm wrong.

I keep looking at the pictures and thinking of all the wonderful things my mom could do with that house ... turning it into a hotbed of feminism in addition to having a place for her horses and a kitchen worthy of her skills.

I live in upstate new york, and that house would be along the lines of 250k to 300k here. We bought afive bedroom, two bathroom on a quarter.acre for 72k. it needed updating but no real.repair. housing is still fairly inexpensive in the more rural places.

That house is way too dark for my tastes. The bedrooms are very average,not watch I would expect. 20 acres would be nice though...

Ohhh Sableduck, that is my kind of bargin. LIke Sableduck saya, rural areas will get you more house and land for your money. When I am crusing "historical homes"like a porn addict I usually find quite a few fixer uppers with land for under 100K.

I don't mean that we don't have to do a lot of fixing up, but no structural repairs, just updating. Plus the house is haunted, soo its kind of cool. Well worth what we paid.
