It definitely sounds like you're about 10 steps ahead since you'll be able to move right out there, utilities are set up, etc. I wish we had considered that more carefully but then, we wouldn't have our particular plot of property and we just love the stupid place. And yes I was in Americorps here in Austin but in a school program. I really wish I had served in the Habitat program - what a huge advantage that would be right about now. We're both very jealous of your beautiful property and that you can build your own home. Good luck!! Will you have animals? Farm? Stay in touch! Can't wait to see where this leads for you...<br />And Vegetarian Hunter - thank you so much for your well wishes! Things are really looking up as of late afternoon today...maybe there'll be a blog post about it in the near future :) I'm glad to hear that my odd donkey behavior extends to other members of the animal kingdom. I'm so glad you've enjoyed our little story - as long as someone gets a laugh it makes our misshaps worthwhile!No Name Farm/Ranchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03322318121685962820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269356286184209981.post-42746331932069490742010-08-17T22:03:03.297-05:002010-08-17T22:03:03.297-05:00Arrgg, now it is going to drive me crazy wondering...Arrgg, now it is going to drive me crazy wondering what all the stereotypes are and what is going on. I really really hope everything turns out well for you two.<br />I love your blog! I think it is hilarious that my cats like to roll in the dirt just like your donkeys!<br />Hopefully as things calm down and get resolved you can clue us into the drama!The Vegetarian Hunterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16509828621100109329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269356286184209981.post-66030469105485122582010-08-17T19:59:46.356-05:002010-08-17T19:59:46.356-05:00Sorry to read of your troubles or challenges. I fe...Sorry to read of your troubles or challenges. I feel we are about to fall into that same world ourselves. I have been reading back on your old posts trying to catch up to speed and it looks like we are following right in your footsteps. We are about to close on ten wooded acres north of you outside of West near Aquilla Texas and our work is cut out for us. It is overgrown and full of poison ivy and greenbriar but loaded with trees. Fortunately for us, it does already have a trailer on it that we can use temporarily until we build our own house. Were you in Americorps? I saw the shirt in one of your pics. My wife and I both did our ten months up here in Ft Worth building houses for Habitat. That's why we are going to build our own! I am really enjoying your blog and hope things get better. You motivate me to write in mine more often. We shall see.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01554073008085715253noreply@blogger.com
