Is that a tennis court in your backyard? Or some sort of alligator feeding pen (it is Texas, after all)?

On the plus side, you now have a pool. |

I had Google Earth up, so I plugged in Lake Arlington to check out how far down it was in their current/latest image. You can see how far from the "shore" it is. Holy smokes!
The funny part is, as soon as I zoomed in to the edge, I saw a tennis court (actually 2) and lo and behold, it appears to be your house. No stalking bro. |
