Lynus and the Fish Bed


Lynus gets a new fish bed. 

We sat it on top of his old bed to give him the idea that he has new digs.

The Yard is a Mess

This yard needs a ton of work.  Really.  But I'm sure the Crew of Two can get it done eventually.  I know it will be a serious adventure.  



 The back fence is burned extra crispy in places.  Took forever to figure out what happened.  

Was it the previous owners burning trash?



Was it the transformer sitting in our backyard that caught on fire?


Was it deliberate?  



Not technically, really.  After calling the power company about the transformer (she said transformers, when they blow, only blow a fuse and don't start fires.  Ok.  Yeah.), our buyer's agent who consulted with the seller's agent ("Um, well, it was the transformer that started the fire.") and several other sources that all blamed it on the transformer, it was one of our neighbors who cleared the smoke on this one.

The house sits behind a strip mall that has, of coursee, back doors for deliveries and pick-ups.  Well, one of the trucks hit the power line going across the back that was attached (underground) to the transformer.  Transformer caught on fire and the neighbor on the other side of us put the fire out before it reached the house, which no one was living in at the time.  

Very handy guy to have around.  The strip mall owns the fence and hasn't made any attempt to replace it so far.  

No worries.  We always come up with a work-around.  







The House is Now Ours so What's Next?



The yard is a mess, the house needs gutters all around but, overall, the house is lovely.  We're very excited to have it and to bring it up to the Tate Standard of Mayhem that we've perfected.


Dancer is making sure the rabbits stay away from his backyard.  He's excited.  Can't you tell?
