DAY 222 - Sinking Mailbox


Two years we had the privilege and outrageous expense of "being sewered" by the county. The sewer's main line was placed under the road, which did mean less mess in the yards. The line was sunk really deep -- 20 feet or so. Now there's now a slight problem occurring. The ground is settling, the road is cracking, and things are sinking. Here's Sam sitting next to her mailbox. It's probably sunk about 2 feet, and still going down!

DAY 203 - Pretty House


I'm always surprised at the gorgeous houses you see on some of these little, obscure country roads. I can just imagine the setting in the summertime.
