McKinzie's Story

I grew up in Pennsylvania in a very small town with woods, a stream, and lots of animals. It was a great place to be a little kid. But I was really glad that we moved to Baltimore because as an older kid, I really liked living in the city where there was more to do for a teenager. I moved here with my parents in 2004. I was already looking for my own house, and in the meantime, I moved my things to my sister's house. I didn't have my own room in the new house, so I slept on my parents' couch every day. Every morning I woke up and saw the beautiful scenery and trees. It was the perfect combination of living in the city and the country. Then one day, my mom saw somebody working on the house two doors down and said you have to go ask what they're planning to do with it. The man said they were fixing it up to sell it. I asked how much he wanted and when he gave me the price, I said, "I'll take it."
