This picture was taken soon after I bought the place in 2001. The house was built in 1948.
The family I bought it from owned it from 1949 to 2001
and raised four children in it. By today's standards, it's a good size for one
person and two cats.
This is a "before" picture--I have been busy moving dirt around and generally attempting
to garden. It does not look too great at the moment due to the chicken-wire cages I am
using to keep the squirrels from digging up or trampling my vegetables. My inclination
is to increase the number of beds, to decrease the mowable area, but grass is easiest to
pick up pecans from, so I may not.
Currently in progress, my first major renovation since moving in, replacing the
roof and adding a rainwater harvesting system.
