Last week it looked like maybe, just maybe that sewer system may be installed in time for the holidays but, it was not meant to be. After a lot of negotiations and scouting out possible alternatives, we are back to square one. My builder is anxious to get this going. We are anxious to get […]
Wow! It has been a year since we started to foster Zach. Even though we wanted to adopt him, we know there might be a better place for him out there, so we will continue to foster him, and treasure him, for as long as life gives us. We haven’t been able to move yet […]
