Stilts -r- Us















Russ and some buddies cleaned out the dirt that the storm left in the holes last week. Today, they set the piers and now we are ready for concrete. It is being delivered tomorrow at 8 a.m. How exciting is that!!










Lots of crazy things going on. The electrician is coming out tomorrow to run the underground wires and set the meter.










We are waiting on the septic permit to be approved.










And the storm water engineer is going to come out tomorrow to be sure the excess water is running where it should. Then that dude has to write a report and give it to Bexar County's storm water folks. Once they approve it, we can get our electric...










I guess tomorrow is a busy day! And I won't even be here. Doesn't that just stink.










Also, we have new friends here on the property. Russ insisted on rescuing a dog that was about to be put down. Tuxedo is his name. When you look at his photo, it will be obvious why we named him Tuxedo. He is about a year old. He very pretty, and his coat is shiny and so soft. Tux has caramel colored eyes that draw you in. We have enrolled him in behavior classes at Pets Mart. He is full of energy and loves to catch a tennis ball. We want to see if he can play with a Frisbee too.










Also, the pig named Hagar (who we were sure was a male) had a litter of piglets - four of them - on Sunday. So, I guess we were wrong! He is a she. And we've decided to keep her name Hagar. It is too hard, after eight months, to remember a new name.
