Backyard events

Some pictures to update you on the backyard.

The walkway from the patioo to the potting shed.

The reworked cold frame. The window is the old

one from the bathroom.

The weeping cherry tree.

The two new lady banksia roses.

The grapes have begun to leaf out.

Shower progress

The shower is progressing nicely. The tile is going in and should be complete tomorrow. The "tile guy" says he will probably grout on Saturday.

Of course, after that comes priming and painting and putting shelves in the linen closet. Hopefully, it will all be finished Tuesday or Wednesday.

new shower

We're in the throes of replacing the jacuzzi with a new walk-in shower.We'll keep you updated.

THE THIEF IN THE BACKYARD

The thief in the backyard.

My bird feeders were getting depleted too fast. I knew the birds couldn't be eating the seed

that fast!!!!! We finally saw him in the feeder the other night and I put out the havahart the next night. Several mornings later he was in it. He got an all expense paid one way trip to Lillington on the other side of the Cape Fear river. I hope it is one way!! The one I released way up by the American Legion hut came back and had to be re-released.

Time for an update on the dollhouse. Went to AC Moore a while ago and got some glue and the

wiring kit. The rest is coming along slowly. The porch required a lot of assembly. Still working on that. I need to set in the two interior walls but I have to lay in the wiring first.

The gable is on as you can see from the picture.

Once the wiring is in and the two interior walls are in we can paint the exterior and install the porch. Then the windows, shutters,flower boxes and door can be added. The end is in sight!!!!!!
