Hello all! Hope all is well with everyone.

No new pics of the yard, but we did pass our first city inspection which means they will now set a date for the gunite/concrete shell to go in. It may be this week but we aren't holding our breath. I'll make sure to post new pics when something happens.

Meanwhile, the cats are all getting used to each other. The situation is definitely improving, though there is still some hissing and growling. Here's a pic that shows just how well things are going:

As you can see, Little Boy and Petey are doing well. Petey's new nickname is Mini-Me because he looks just like Little Boy. Little Girl is a bit less friendly (though she's doing better too - see other pic of all three of them in the albums). They are eating off of a really cute kitty dish that Lorre, one of the paralegals at Mark's office gave us. Thanks Lorre!!

On an entirely different note, as many of you know, my brother Connor is obsessed (and I mean really obsessed) with banana plants. After several visits to our yard, Connor has proclaimed that our yard is absolutely perfect for growing bananas. He is supremely confident that in our yard they will bear fruit. Though we aren't really going for a tropical look (I don't think they grow bananas in the Mediterranean but I could be wrong), we told Connor that we'll plant bananas for him. So now it will be sort of a Mediterranean/tropical look. Connor has already carefully chosen a banana plant that I picked up last weekend. Here's a pic:

Obviously no banana bread any time soon . . .

That's it for now. I'll keep you posted on the pool!
