Reliable source confirms that the Bushes have bought a 1-acre lot in Preston Hollow in north Dallas. Small house currently sits on property. Most likely will be a 'tear down'.

That's where the backup secret service will stay.

Don't they "supposedly" have a new house being built in HP?

No. The Secret Service agents will be stationed outside of the house - down the street - round-the-clock in unmarked vehicles.

There has been no official confirmation of the Bushes building a house in the Park Cities.

A real estate agent with Allie Beth Allman Realtors has reportedly sold the Bushes a 1-acre lot in Preston Hollow that already has a house on it.

I don't think 1 acre is going to cut it - might as well move into the Melrose. I would imagine the final deal would be for a 10-12 acre expanse - not in HP (obviously).

I keep thinking of the finite limit they've put on secret service protection for former Presidents. You'd have to think that would be a concern. I guess maybe private protection details will be hired at their own expense.

Really exciting news would be confirmation that the Bushes have purchased season football tickets for SMU... for them, some friends, and his secret service detail.

Considering how well president's seem to do after they leave office, fees for speaking engagements, memoirs, etc. I don't think it will be an issue. Plus, it isn't as though they were in the poor house before he entered office.

I'm not so much concerned about the financial impact as I am at the prospect of 10 or 20 trigger happy, hard-charging Blackwater types rolling around Northwest Highway and Central.

Maybe we can convince them to drive a little too far west down NW Hwy or east of 75 and start slaughtering some crime.

The *final deal* has reportedly already been made by the Allie Beth Allman realtor who sold them a 1-acre lot in Preston Hollow.

Perhaps a wedding gift to their daughter. Of course it was supposed to be a surprise, but now you've screwed that up. Way to go 65.
