Trees
So, we finally have a signed contract for selling our San Antonio home. I was getting a little concerned, as they were dragging their feet. They had a contingency clause stating if they could not pull out the trees in the backyard to put in a pool, they didn't want the house. The concern is unreasonable if you live in San Antonio and know anyone can take a tree out in their own yard. However, these people are from Mexico, where it is illegal. Yes, you can actually go to jail for cutting down a tree, or even running into a tree with your car. (which makes me a little nervous) You CAN, however, run down a person without repercusion, or sell poisonous food on the street, or exploit your children by making them dance in front of traffic for money. But you CAN'T harm a tree! Go figure.
