I drive past Dodson's House Moving on South Loop 410 every time I drive to Tejeda Academy to work. They had a cute little green house for sale and I was interested in it. Russ and I went online to Dodson's website and looked at that house and others that were on the website.
One day, we had some time on our hands so we went to Dodson's to look at what they had available. The little green house was REALLY small (probably not more than 700 sq. ft.), really old, very poorly laid out. They had several houses there, but all were too small or really needed too much work. Russ and I looked at several portables just for fun. Russ's dad, Pat, was wanting to build a catering kitchen for Gina and Russ and I talked to him about buying one for that purpose. While talking about that possibility, Pat said you can't buy the material for what they are selling some of these buildings for. That got Russ and I to talking about it, and finally deciding that it was a great idea.

Russ is very excited. The building is at least 6 feet off the ground on one corner and about 8 feet off the ground on the opposite corner. He hopes to be able build a shop under there for his tools etc.
He has to clean out the holes that we drilled in the next few days because he plans to pour concrete on Wednesday. Then we wait for two weeks for it to cure. After that two week wait, Dodson's can come back out and put the building down on the piers Russ has set.
During the two week wait... Russ is going to put in our septic and hopefully our electric (from the pole to the building).
I also wanted to put in a photo of the tub we bought. I mentioned it in an ea
rlier blog, just didn't have a photo of it then.
