It’s been a busy month. Here’s what’s been going on in our property tales:

San Antonio House:

• I got the lawn mowed
• Watering has been going according to local legal permissions
• I got the volunteer trees removed near the back corner barbecue area
• Did some routine cleaning while I was down there

The Ranch:

• Submitted out plan for Wildlife Management to the Appraisal District.  No news yet on whether they have accepted it.
• I have a meeting with a more or less local Parks and Wildlife representative week after next to tour the ranch and see if he has any suggestions for us.

The Store:

• Got it mowed
• A cable came off one of the roll-up doors, and Mr. L got it re-installed.  While he did that, he lubricated all the rollers
• The ’46 Mercury Convertible is installed in the center bay.  She’ll be comfortable there for as long as she needs to be.

The Shop:

• Mr. L has been working on shop lighting.
• He’s also doing some rearranging to make space to move the lift to another position, freeing up space for other things.

Central Texas House:

• Mowing and trimming completed for this week
• Mr. L has painted the middle boards with color coat and has started stripping the first several rows of shingles on the second floor.  This is only on a portion of one wall, but it’s going to help us verify the color scheme is going to look the way we think it will.
• Even though we applied weed killer that was supposed to stop them, we’re still getting a few sticker burs.  76 this morning before mowing.
