ANIMAL TRACKS
With all the cleared areas around the yard now, the grass hasn't filled in so after a rain, when the ground is soft, we get tracks!
These look like maybe a raccoon?
And we're thinking these are deer tracks?

GRILLING PORCH OUTDOOR KITCHEN BONUS NEW HOUSE TEASER
Surprise!
We had one more "room" to share!
2nd Man is getting his kitchen and I'm getting a space outside to make my own! And it will be...
We bought two of these a few years back to use at the farm but were never sure where we wanted to put them. These are call "national park grills" or something like that, as they are the same manufacturer that supplies National parks and campgrounds with grills. Durable to be outside for years. They are put in the ground with concrete (like any pole, etc) and so we were thinking of putting them just off the concrete patio behind the gas grill so we can turn around and use these if we want to grill with mesquite wood or charcoal. We still have them in the boxes so they WILL finally find a home here.
2nd Man even suggested we do something like this, so we have sort of have an extension of the "entertaining space" outside and also have a place to sit and have guests watch while grilling and maybe even additional outdoor seating beyond that.

RED BERRY TOPIARIES TRASH TO TREASURE
Regular readers know that I have a favorite place to look for bargains...our downstairs trash area! Our building has trash chutes on every floor and they feed into a separate room, but for boxes and other things that people can't put in the chute, there is an area (indoor) near the loading dock where people can put the things they don't want. I've found quite a few cool items over the last few years.

IT IS COLD OUTSIDE AND BONUS HOBART
We broke out the fuzzy socks. They feel great. The shark ones we got last Summer we wore las week and they are in the laundry basket, forgot to get a picture.
And we never forget about sweet Hobart. When he's on the couch next to us (he alternates, ha), he has a warm fuzzy blanket that we cover him up with. We figure if we're cold, he probably is too.

PROTECTING THE PLANTS FROM FREEZE
Here we go.
Freeze inbound!
LOL! Actually, this is kind of cool (and custom made I'm sure) but we'll just have to go with an actual greenhouse at some point.

BACK ON THE MOWER 2025
Saturday was beautiful. It was a bit overcast, but it was cool and just a perfect temperature for yard work.
