    What a rigamarole! I didn't even think that far into it! It just looked like a bad idea, and you gave a good explanation why. I'm also pretty sure having a full-sized dead tree in the house isn't the best idea either. I bet this house looked good on paper...

    I was curious to try paw paws that I paid $25 to have four of them shipped to Arizona. I loved them, they tasted so tropical. However, they didn't agree with my stomach. If I remember correctly, they gave me diarrhea. (I didn't eat them all at once.)

I love it but also don't. Also, per the article, the current owner has never filled the pool, so the agent says the condition and functionality of it are uncertain.

    'Incredible’ Roman bathers’ gems lost 2,000 years ago found near Hadrian’s Wall www.theguardian.com

    Taking your valuables with you into a swimming pool is always a risk. The Romans should have paid better heed, judging from the quantity of gemstones recovered from the drain of one of their bathhouses. As many as 30 semi-precious stones have been discovered by archaeologists almost 2,000 years after their owners lost them at a site in modern-day Carlisle, just behind Hadrian’s Wall. The stones had dropped out of their ring settings, their glue probably weakened in the steamy baths. They were simply flushed into the drains when the pools and saunas were cleaned.
