And The Louise is here with us too.. :D

I still have alot of catching up to do ...I am still in the "Looking for Answers" installment, but I don't wish to rush myself.  I gotta enjoy every bit of the action (be it in or out of Ellery's house)...

THANK YOU LOUISE - for sharing your writing genius with us!!

Ha ha ha!    Perfect!     I was just thinking about that this morning too!

The El Camino was marketed as a "Gentlemans" pickup.      I can't believe with todays popularity of Trucks that none of the car companies have resurected the El camino & Ranchero vehicles.   Half car & Half truck.    What could be more practical?    You can haul stuff to the dump, wash the car, then take your special someone out for a nice night out on the town in total comfort of a passenger car.

I am wondering what Ellery's house looks like. We have a few details--living room has lots of bookcases, a couch and recliner and 4 (I think) windows across the front. The kitchen has been described as a galley kitchen. I am imagining a single story ranch, with a carport. Come in the front door, into the living room. Kitchen with a small dining area is behind the living room, with a sliding glass door off the back onto the patio. There's a hall with three bedrooms: a decent sized master bedroom and two smaller ones, one of which Ellery has converted into an office. The other is probably a guest room but has become a place with an accumulation of "stuff." Nowadays, it is where the treadmill would be but back in 1984, treadmills in the home weren't as ubiquitous as they are today. One bathroom. Is it built on slab or does it have a basement?

What's on the outside? Brick? Wood? What do they have in Wyoming?

What I am not clear on is how someone coming up to the house by the driveway could see someone on the patio, which is in the back and surrounded by high hedges.
