Reading, pronounced Red-ing

Justin in front of his new place of employment! Can you see the pool behind him, that is the community pool two doors down.
Well it's official, we got the resident internship/job at Bean Funeral Homes in Reading Pennsylvania  and we are very excited.  We know we couldn't have found this job without Heavenly Fathers help.  Mr. Bean invited us to Reading for the weekend where he put us in a nice hotel for the night and spent most of the day showing us around the city and his funeral homes.  He has five funeral homes and they are all very well taken care of.  Mr. Bean has the nicest crematory in the state, and he is a very adaptive and progressive funeral director who likes to keep up with the changes in the way people like to do funerals.  As you may know many funeral directors are very traditional and not very willing to change as the world gets more modern.  But the fact is that times are changing and people want different things than they used to.  So it is a good opportunity to work for him for many reasons.  He basically offers a lot more options for people who may not want the strictly traditional funeral.  We feel very blessed.  We will be living in one of the funeral homes for free which is a great blessing and a great perk of the job!  Here are some pictures, we can't believe we can live here for such a good price, free!



Through the door at the top of the above stairs leads to this outside patio area, and then to the door to our apartment! Isn't this so cool!

Dorky I know, but everything about his funeral homes were so manicured, I had to take a picture of the beautiful hanging plants! He has a drip system people into the hanging baskets! Amazing! He grew up in this home!
Our entrance! Can you believe our entrance! No Cinderella tower for us! Love it!!!

This is the enclosed porch on the 2nd floor in the back that will be our dining room most likely! It has a heat stove for the winter, and is enclosed too! It is pretty awesome!

I had to post a comment about this! So you can see the enclosed room to the right on the top floor. Almost the whole top floor is ours except two rooms! The garage in back is actually built into the hill!
