Well, my aunt's dog just had puppies and they were trying to give them away. Later I found out my aunt and uncle discussed it with mom and dad ahead of time, and they all made sure I found the egg. :D

she is fine David...living in Houston now...
Housing is a funny thing, we lived in shotgun shacks and old houses when I was growing up....never lived in a trailer myself but a lot of my relatives do...and there are some really nice ones out there.
another aunt lived in one down in Polk County. Had a built on room and a porch built across the back of it facing a stretch of forest land as far as the eye could see. I loved that place.
Once we lived in a house so old it didn't have an indoor toilet. It did have a showerhead in a little closet that had been added onto the side of one of the bedrooms...it was lined in black tar paper and had no light in it. In fact now that I think about it..it didn't have closets at all....just that added nook
injest:
It didn't have electricity either...I mean it was not wired for lights...the wires for the lights were stapled along the edges of the walls....painted over so many times you could hardly see them in places

don't read DAVID!!!
My cousin was murdered in an old house like that. I don't know why I thought of that...but he was at a bar and picked up a girl. Her boyfriend and her had decided to rob someone...when he got home the boyfriend broke in and killed him with a machete.
You know who has to clean that kind of scene up? the family. They had to strip the carpet up...burned all the stuff in the back yard. Driving by you would see the light on it was an ugly feeling...
