Propane, Holes, and Poles




Last weekend, we found a 250 gallon propane tank for $350. It was quite a drive, all the way to Poteet, to pick it up. Brand new, they run $800 to over a $1000. We found this on Craig's List also. You sure can find great deals on that website if you know what you are looking for.






We borrowed a skidsteer from a neighbor and rented a 18" auger to dig holes for our power pole and our piers. We are going to put our house on pieces of telephone poles. When Russ was almost done, I took this photo. Russ and I both said that it looks like a mole was loose on our property. (Or for those Nascar fans - Digger was loose.)





We got the news on Saturday that our building will be delivered on Tuesday. We are very excited about that. But now there is a long list of things that need to be completed before the building arrives. And since I am working day and night, I cannot be much help. To top things off, Russ's truck decided to break down today. And although it is just the starter, it is going to take some doing to get it fixed tomorrow because it is on the bottom of the engine and some other stuff has to come off just to get to it.
