That's why I'm here!! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif A day never go's bye that I don't say a prayer of thanks for what I have. Take care

Al, are you talking about the top half of your building? Either that or you must have a very short tractor to fit into that 18" high doorway. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

You may want to upload that picture again -- only the top half came through.

mitch - stop by the office one day -- 646 just east of 45 -- can't miss it - it's the one with the radar tower in the back yard /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif My country place (and home) is Bastrop county just west of Fayette county line (winchester road) The wife & I have 2 places there totaling 18 acres ... I want to sell both of them and buy 20 someplace else .. Fayette or Lee county head the list .. Bastrop is getting too crowded.

You nailed it in one.

Born in Aberdeen, Scotland (200,000) people. Met her, got married and moved to London, England (5 million people), where she worked for a major oil company. Came to Dallas, TX (umteen million people) when she got transferred back home. Moved to East Texas, 100 miles east of Dallas, when she retired. The little town, 6 miles away has 4,550 people when everyone is home. This is where her family is from and the first time I saw it I thought it looked a lot like parts of Scotland with SUNSHINE, big pine trees, rolling hills and lots of fishing ... just beautiful. I fell in love with it and the people. In fact when the company I worked for was taken over, I was asked to move and live in Houston. I told them that I'd leave the place where I live now when 6 strong men carry me out in a wooden box and meant it ... I retired. I'm not going anywhere. I've seen great chunks of this world and this is where I want to be and stay 'though I must admit, I've never got used to the August heat. Whoever invented A/C ought to get the Nobel Prize.

When I reread this post it seems that I've followed that woman around like a puppy dog for over 25 years. I just want you all to know that that's not true. I'm a man of independent mind and spirit who makes all his own decisions. Now excuse me while I go to the kitchen and slobber and beg her for lunch. If I'm really lucky, she might even rub my tummy if I roll over.

Chiggers, scorpions, rocks, cactus, snakes, and a great potential for heat stroke. What's not to like? Besides, my wife lives here. If she moved, I'd follow, but otherwise I'm happy.

</font><font color="blue" class="small">( I wish I could find some cheap haircuts, they are about $10 around here. )</font>

It was not only the cost, but I didn't like driving 20 miles to the barbershop, then sometimes having to sit and wait, so I just bought some clippers and let my wife shear me. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
