Pond is looking good, can't wait to add one to my backyard. I really kind of want to make a greenhouse with one in it, not sure if the HOA would approve of a greenhouse.

I HATE HOA's! (Yes, that's all caps and I am yelling it!) I do not know what they are like in Midland, TX but I can tell you here, in Illinois, they all suck. Ridiculous fees and nothing given in return. It's crazy. I HATE HOA's! (BTW - I presently live where there is no HOA and will not live in any area that has one ever again.)

I’m kinda surprised @crusso1993 let this one pass by. Wonder if he is under the weather?

Well, I have not been my "usual" self as of late. However, I am quickly coming back and, oh, don't think I didn't have any number of random odd thoughts about the hammock riding!

Daniel graduated high school tonight.

I don't know exactly how to feel.

I think it may sink in over the next few days.

The count down begins to him leaving for basic. 21 days.

Congratulations, Daniel! A big hug for dad too!

Daniel left for Dauphin Island this morning with some friends. He deserves the trip. I just wish I could have done more. I guess most parents think whatever they do is not enough.

I agree with above stated, but our fees aren't terrible but we don't get much in return. Problem with Midland is if you want to build a new home or buy a newer home it will be in an HOA. The city is requiring any new housing developments have a HOA in place, I guess to save money on city code enforcement officers. If we ever move again, we will buy a couple of acres and build a home in the county so we can flip the bird to an HOA. For now, I will deal with it I guess.

This is so good to hear as now he will be ready to embark on the most important journey of his life.
I am proud of you and him,
Matt

Congratulations on your son's graduation!

At least you know he'll be a man when he gets out of basic!

Thanks! In many ways they had to grow up way too fast. They will always be my little boys though.

I spent a lot of time there as a kid. I hope it proves to be just as magical for him!

Graduation. Bitter sweet probably for both. For us it is an end, for them a beginning. However, you are a newlywed and have a new beginning all your own. Have faith in your parenting. I'm pretty sure he is going to make a heck of a man! Congrats to both!!!
