First we called Roto Rooter (?) and they wanted %500 to stick some type of hefty 'snake' down our back yard pumping line, but then our neighbor told us 'No, just call the city and they'll do it for free.' We did just that and sure enough they came out and showed through a little camera where the problem was. So for now their 'snake like' equipment was able to open the lines back up, but they said it'll more than likely happen again. He said to write a letter to the city asking them to do the repairs because my house just had this issue, and my next door neighbor and her back yard neighbor, PLUS our back yard neighbor (all four house connected) have had this same sewage come up in our homes within the last 3 years. Our stove is somewhat working....my hubby was able to get one burner lit, but the other three are still not lighting,they just make the clicking sound and there's a small spark but that's it. Same with the pilot light on our hot water heater; it's not fixed. So we'll be a little roughin' in with cold/more like freezing showers until we get it fixed. Thanks for asking. I appreciate that.

But I did wonder for just a minute if you were going to have a part 2 telling about some horrible murder.<BR/><BR/>I got a kick out of it because I purposly put a cow and mule skeleton in a cactus bed in my fron yard. They looked really cool there, until stray dogs (and maybe a cyote or two) started dragging the bones all around.Lavonda Pflughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00537591041005129720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1173699690175945868.post-67122157147079913772009-02-02T18:13:00.000-08:002009-02-02T18:13:00.000-08:00Sarah-I'm glad you found an occation to smile!

The older I get, the less interested I am in having to field dress and process a big buck. That's what brothers are for! I kindof figured that was you, Deacon. Seems like I have a picture of a big buck you shot many years ago (we both had less grey in our hair then!) Of course, talking about shoot a deer has probably driven off the rest of my readers. :)Travishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14493805128069922325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1173699690175945868.post-29696815702973964722009-02-02T18:06:00.000-08:002009-02-02T18:06:00.000-08:00just kidding Will, I am not really that anonymous....just kidding Will, I am not really that anonymous. heheAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1173699690175945868.post-13214199066911361462009-02-02T18:05:00.000-08:002009-02-02T18:05:00.000-08:00so you finally found that ole elusive buck huh?so you finally found that ole elusive buck huh?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1173699690175945868.post-19627634999189606972009-02-02T16:26:00.000-08:002009-02-02T16:26:00.000-08:00Travis,That was great!
