Buddy got a new crawfish boiler so we put it to use this past weekend. Worked out nicely. Finally remembered to get a pic of a platter on my 3rd trip. Almost needed a wheelbarrow to get me out of there.
The permit is just the easy way for them to find out. I put up a 25'x30' metal building that I didn't permit and 3 years later it showed up as an improvement on my tax bill. They will catch up to exterior improvements. If done inside, unless it is structural I wouldn't pull a permit. It didn't affect it much since it was a metal building but I do know that some CAD also uses satellite images to obtain some property information.
I'm out by Rockwall. Didn't cost anything. He needed a place to put bees that has access to water and open fields. I needed bees to start my ag exempt. Some guys that know you are trying to get the ag exempt will charge but if they get all the honey and bee production, then it should be an even exchange.
Smoke Sessions out in Royse City had their grand opening of their brick and mortar restaurant today. It's not the Top 5 in the metroplex, but they are always consistent and everything has good flavor. Had brisket, ribs, pulled pork and beef link.
One reason I wanted to expand our garden was to put in asparagus plants. I got 24 crowns in the ground. Won't be able to harvest for a few years but they will produce over the next 20+ years. I do have 4 plants I put in two years ago that I'll be able to start harvesting off of next year.
Pretty much anything that I had already planted to try and get a jump on things a couple of frosts got them. However, I'm expanding my garden again this year and had 14 yards of garden soil delivered. Got most of it spread this evening and will finish up tomorrow. Spent $125 on transplants today at Covington's nursery and hope to have everything planted by tomorrow evening.
I the cord over winter and picked up SlingTV, but not their sports package which I'm not sure if it has FSSW anyways. Anyone have a hookup to watch the game via streaming?
