Yikes...

Sorry anyone who still looks at this! It's been far too long. I know. I know.

So many new things.

Including this girl:

(taken when she was only 9 weeks old)

 Who now looks like this:

(taken this week, at 6.5 months)

Her name is Penny. She is sad here because she was spayed last week and must wear this for a while longer. 

And from now on, for at least a while, you can find new posts at soweboughtaduplex.tumblr.com. It's just easier. 

Big Lou...

Our neighbors stopped me on my way to the garage this weekend - asking if we or our tenants happened to lose a GIANT LIZARD. Um, no.

Apparently, hanging out in the sun in our neighbor's for the last couple of days is a Tegu Lizard - a large Argentinian reptile. They look like this:

Apparently they are pretty harmless. They think he must have been a pet that escaped. They were canvassing the neighborhood looking for his owner, and in the meantime - have named him Big Lou. The wife imagines a future where he becomes our streets version of the Loch Ness Monster - appearing and disappearing like the stuff of legend.
