So, after our happy moving announcements our managers called us and told us the rent of the apartment we were moving to was now $600 a month. No thank you. Compared to other apartments around here, frankly, it was a rip off. So, we will stay where we are until we finish school and maybe put some of the money we will save towards a graduation trip for Jacob.

We spent the 4th of July in Jackson Hole WY. Jacob's friends Jaimen and Joe came with us. Jaimen is a mountain man and took us on a 16 mile bike ride with a 4 mile hike in the middle. Needless to say Jacob and I were dead after that trip. But we did find a really good "homemade" ice cream shop in Jackson that also sold guns. I was very glad to find a homemade ice cream shop because it just isn't the Fourth of July with out homemade ice cream.

We also went to the Idaho Falls Zoo with free tickets from Jacobs work. I felt really bad for those animals. They had really small cages or little areas of land to live on. If I were a PETA member they would be hearing from me, but the animals were fun to see nonetheless.
Lastly, we had some toilet problems. Not to talk toilet on my blog because no one likes that, but we had some real problems. We went to ACE Hardware and asked for their best stuff. They gave us liquid fire and told us to be very very careful. Well, not even liquid fire solved the problem and we treated our toilet three times with the strongest acid we could find. So, I felt that the managers owed it to us to fix our toilet after raising the rent on us and had them get us a plumber. Now the toilet, thankfully works like a charm.
