Yes we know no dogs for A-4, but wouldn't it look nice in your back seat for the tag along dogs, right?

Hi Kitty, these dog potty's are great. We have a smaller one now without the fire hydrant or automatic sprinkler that flushes it and cleans it. AND IT IS STILL GREAT...we can't wait for this one that cleans itself...they work like a charm with very little training...and no getting up in the middle of the night

Default Fifteen and counting

Fifteen days until our design appointment. We have gotten some great insights and advice from fellow Gilchristians. Some of the things we have read is concerning about broken promises about stretches, but we are still excited. Moving on…..

It is so good hear that there are lots of dogs around us. We have 2 year old Beau who is a 40 lb Schnauzer/terrier mix. He loves to play rough.
Post a picture of Emma. I am excited about meeting her.
When we get in on Friday, we are going to search out the dog park. Any comments good or bad about the dog park? We need a safe place for Beau to run in.

We signed 12/14 and we got pix of the strings on the 23rd. When we saw it over last weekend the Sheetrock was complete, painting done, the tile grout was in the garage. Pix yesterday showed the driveway and the lanai floor poured. 29 days more....
I love we are sharing so many similar experiences ... We can share stories and laugh ...and us Gillys sure are starting to have a lot to laugh about ...

Good luck on the build

Default Emma

Presenting Emma! After three abandonments, she found me. This picture is of her receiving Certifications as a Therapy Dog and Canine Good Citizen.
The instructor unofficially gave her Best in Class.

Gracie and I took a quick inspection tour of A-4's landing pad early this morning and the rough-in plumbing was there along with an inspector who was pouring water into the main waste drain presumably with an eye towards checking the "poo flow factor" on the lot. It's really taking shape.

The only thing I can't figure out is where they're gonna put the Number 3 Wire for his landings. After the wild and wooly chase the other day I don't think I saw a drag chute on the back of his golf car and he's gonna have to have something to get his wheels on the deck when he finally gets there.

Inquiring minds want to know....

Default Wanted Desperately: Social Coordinator

Okay MamaDerby! There are so many people coming in for design and so many people already here that His Worship, The Mayor and the Administrative Department are having an increasingly difficult time coordinating GillyGatherings and GillyBration!

We desperately need you and The Old Bishop to hurry your buns down here and lend a hand. Our coordinating abilities are sorely lacking and it's on through the grace of the Lord above that we've been able to keep our heads above water. Your talents and abilities have been missed beyond human measure!!!
