At least septic tanks are something we won't have to worry about. *blink*

Our rent is dirt cheap because the guy who owns the house can't be bothered to find out what the neighborhood can demand. We will just almost triple our monthly payment when we buy if we want to stay in this neighborhood. That puts a serious crimp in things like excessive travel budgets. Which I know will be worth it, but I do like to plan these 10 day visits to see friends, hunky Stargate actors, and fine art. Of course, what we *should* have been doing is saving it all up so that we'd have more options at this point.
