You can't scare me off with a little talk about chicken poop. <br /><br />Casa de Refugio is a good name. <br /><br />We started calling our home Dos Palmas because there were 2 huge palm trees in the front yard. Alas, one died (Una Palma doesn't have the same ring) and then the second one sickened & died (neither does Zero Palmas)... so we're working on a new name.cubehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13788126579896276199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2233613580522928405.post-50093673611925367712009-06-30T23:48:09.849-07:002009-06-30T23:48:09.849-07:00Thanks for the encouragement, aliencg!
