Don it is a city ordinance,, if you hadn't been annexed since 1987 and not within a 100 yards of a home,, then you are father in lawed.. I also have 54 acres that is part of this same property that is in the county,, They are putting in a new county roads, four lanes concrete that on the south side of me and a four lanes on the east side.. The city wants 60 ft. easement between the city property and county land.. before long I will be out of the ranching/driving range/farming.. this area is growing too fast for me,, Lou

Sounds like its time to sell out and move to the country.

May be right two bit score,, I had some land in a place called Bonnie up the road a bit,, Now it's all new homes,, they are wanting this property for the same reason.. Lou

That's the same thing they did to a lot of the land some airports used to sit on. Many of us lost aerobatic boxes because houses were put under them.

I think the cities are moving in almost everywhere.

Now I see it Lou goes around and buys up land cheap and then brings the developers in…

Lou then golf courses and subdivisions.

 

[Lou66]

yep FarmGirl,, things change,, with this new road it's 35 minutes to Galveston or 35 minutes to Houston.. before it was an hour or more. Now it's a straight shot.. at 70 mph.. I am thinking I got another two to three years before I will have to sell.. or could sell tomorrow.. You only need so much money.. before you start to waste it,, or spoil others.. They say you can't take it with you.. but I am writing myself a check in case I needs something on the other side.:confused2:.:laughing: Lou

I decided to post my bathroom renewal photos so Y'all won't think I was a complete couch potato last month. The old tub faded over it's 19 years.
All the new tub's trim is white PVC trim from Lowes. Super easy to work with and install.
hugs, Brandi

Well tomorrow is the big day in Punxsutawney, PA up on Gobbler's Knob that will effect/affect everybody.

I think Lou may have helped write this historical description Groundhog Day: FAQ

Nicely done, bindian! Now you can get cleaned up after working, for another 19 years!

If that blasted groundhog sees his shadow, I'm going to PA to go hunting, and the dogs will have Groundhog stew next week!

Brandi, looks good! but no diving board:confused3:

I am rapping up my daughters bath, but didn't even go near the tub this time around, just replace the sink and cabinet, mirror and added a Medicine cabinet.

No board on this one. It is two inches swallower than the old one. It sits on 6 inch thick foam. The old one sit on 4 inch thick foam. It seems more solid standing in it.

FYI.......the old tub out of the front bathroom tub remodel a couple years ago, that I planned on turning into an island maintenance boat, has dried out and became brittle sitting in the shed with afternoon sunlight. I threw a scrap 2x6 about 4 inches long into it and it poked a hole in the side. So it's scrap.

Similar, but you would have to use the delay timer on your camera and some bubble bath. :cloud9:
