What difference a day makes


Yesterday was a beautiful Texas day but not today. The tempature had drop some 40 degrees and it is raining. The plumbing has come to a halt as we watch the weather. It is suppose to rain for 3 days we will hope not. I guess a good thing is with all the rain we were able to burn a brush pile.

Plumbing goes in

Saturday our plumbers arrived. These two guys were real nice and took time out to visit with us for a few minutes. We got to decide where we wanted the outside spigots. I hadn't even thought anything about it, but we quickly figured it out. Friday night we picked out our bricks. That was a lesson in itself. Basically you go to the brick store and look at their samples and pick the ones you are interest in. Then comes the part that blows my mind- they send you to houses that have that same brick. These are houses the people are living in. You just pull up out front and gawk at their houses. I'm glad that we did though because the one we thought we would go with look terrible and I would have been very unhappy with it. We loved the first brick that we saw on the house and have decided to go with it.
