Forgot to remove the quote tag after deciding not to quote anything, also forgot to add a [pic link](http://www.zippythepinhead.com/pages/1places/shoe.html).

“well-heeled house”

Oy.

In comparison to San Diego house prices, what they’re asking for is a steal! I just might consider relocating…

Now there’s a house with a lot of sole…😛  
I want it! I would love to live in a shoe! And the price is incredible if it isn’t completely falling apart. (And I think the story said it had been renovated in 1987). I’m 44. Is that old enough???
