OFF TO THE FARM TODAY

This picture is from last weekend when it was beautiful and cool.  Today it's still kind of cool after yesterday's rain...

Back yard at the farm
Our fingers are crossed that the bathroom is clear this weekend.  The doors have been shut all week and the opening behind the sink has been sealed up.  We do not want a repeat of the EPIC BATTLE!

The good thing is that today I am going to get time on the Zen Machine (for those new followers, it's my John Deere mower).  It will most likely be the last mowing until next Spring (that seems so far away).

More later when we get back into town.  Unfortunately we can't spend the night since it's Sunday and we have to be at work bright and early Monday morning. However, after last weekend, 2nd Man might not be so keen on spending the night at this time...maybe we'll wait a few weekends until we know for sure we are snake/mouse free.  

Hope your weekend is going well!

    1. Yikes! We do have some scorpions down here, but thankfully few and far between (maybe I should knock on wood!)

  2. Good luck. I should have mentioned before, a neighbour once told me that if you dissolve aspirin in warm milk then leave it in a saucer, it will kill snakes. Apparently snakes like milk and the aspirin causes internal bleeding. Not sure whether it works but if you're desperate might be worth leaving a saucer out while your in town.

    1. I've never heard that. Thanks for the tip. I'd do that on a poisonous snake for sure.
