Arriving in Houston
December 2008 saw us on the move again, this time to Houston, Texas. The house we moved into was enormous and far too much for the two of us, but we wanted a pool in order to escape the heat and humidity of a Texas summer (well a texas every season actually) but summer was by far the worst. The houses with pools all looked like this, or bigger!!
whilst attempting to manoeuvre her truck into this 'small' driveway Sarah managed to run into the neighbours car parked in the street outside, worse still she then came in the house to tell me about it rather than telling the neighbour. Minutes later he came round and asked if perhaps Sarah had 'caught his car' without noticing............welcome to Texas, the guy was sound about it and we sorted it out, though the rear of his car always looked a different colour after that.

the house may have been to big for the two of us but it did come with this...which as I said earlier is why we moved here.
So, December 2008 we are now residents of Houston, Texas and ready to explore the deep South........we think.
