Thanks for the information!
I know nothing about which power company serves where. In Texas, you get to choose your utility is what I've heard. Does that mean I don't have to necessarily worry if, say, Pendernales Coop covers my particular area?
I will be working for Cap Metro in North Austin. My wife's been looking at places to rent in Round Rock and Leander while we figure out where the "best" areas are for us. The schools there seem to have good ratings.
My first day on the job there is March 09. I'll probably be online more at that time, asking more specific questions. If anyone wants to email me personally so I can bother them with a question or twenty, please write me at: jon.valterra @ gmail.com
THANKS AGAIN!
