In the past I have complained about medicore service in East Texas. If your air conditioner goes out, you should have called three weeks ago if you want it back on in the next couple of weeks. It’s not just air conditioning people and I am not picking on them. After living here for a few months, I have discovered that everything here is seasonal.
Before you jump the gun and think spring, summer, fall and winter, let me explain seasonal. Fishing, dove, quail and deer seasons govern what, if anything, gets done. " If it ain’t done by deer season (winter) then it ain’t gonna get done til fishing season - maybe."
As usual I have a plan. I’m gonna arrange for any service person to fish off one of the docks in Lake Palestine when they make a call to my house. There are lots of dove in our commune and I’m guessing there has be a few quail, if the foxes haven’t eaten them. There are deer all over down here, so I can see no reason why a tech can’t fix a problem and shoot a deer on the same call. Sure a lot of shooting will upset the residents, but we live in the country and shooting is allowed - I think.
If all else fails, we’ll have a fox hunt. There are bunches of the little red grubbers. That ought to bring service people running. I can just see it now, two plumbers and an electrician oh horseback chasing around the neighborhood. Fox hunting could become a fifth season.
Talley Ho!
