Feet aren't planted in cement.

I've looked through Texas for next to Plants, military bases, and major highway access to Houston, and good school districts but I've not made 1 offer yet!

Getting my feet planted and looking to go full force.

I'd really like something durable and CoreTec seems to have the best rep in NY/NJ area (12mm PVC wear layer + 1.5mm vinyl top + 4mm core).Just fyi, the vinyl plants will going over old hardwood floors (110 years old) that are uneven and filled with gaps.

So far we've done the following: new exterior doors; new windows; new kitchen floor; new cabinets, countertop and sink; repaired rotten beam; gutted and replaced whole bathroom; replaced HVAC and added central air; drywalled over popcorn ceiling; replaced all interior doors; mulched and planted shrubbery in front yard; refinished hardwood floors; replaced exterior hose bibs; many, many layers of kilz primer. 

Speaking of gardens, the 3/4 acre garden surrounding the house is overgrown, but there are some amazing old plants hidden amongst the chaos - I found a rhododendron with a 30' spread, whose trunk was 8" in diameter - quite a specimen this far north.The main house has seen the anteroom and library/smoking room (on the right-hand side of the main entrance) turned into two bedrooms - with a washroom and laundry closet added between them.  

Should there ever be a reversal in the State or Federal laws prohibiting such use the greenhouses would still be a very viable, albeit not as profitable from an ROI stand point, for the cultivation of vegetable and/or other plants that need year around environmentally controlled conditions.My thougt was that since it looks as though there's a real strong possibility that the Marijuana industry looks like it could be here to stay that expanding into commercial and reatail properties that lend themselves to this venue might be a prudent investment. 

Kasdorf, research manager for the Houston Chamber of Commerce.The availability of cheap and plentiful office space, plus a large labor pool, also recently have led to a surprising growth in the number of new small businesses.Ironically, the downturn also lessened traffic on the city's notoriously jammed freeways and is allowing officials to catch up on much-needed road construction projects.Yet even those involved in the diversification effort admit that it could take two decades before enough industries plant their roots and help wean the city off its oil dependency.Until then, many Houstonians say they will hang tough in the belief that their city eventually will rebound and provide the opportunities that drew them to it in the first place.''

I sell divining rods that not only find water but also points out the best places to plant your money trees.  

Just a couple mirrors, plants, and pictures.
