Howdy Penny,

 

Hi Everyone,

> Good luck with the bear critter .. I had a bunch of deer come out of the

woods late yesterday afternoon and TRY to eat the young apples on our trees

... our dawg gave'em what for and I hope they'll not come back. What is very

interesting to me is the outstanding job y'all have done on your entry

way/patio .. that is NOT an easy task. Laying stone over sand is a hassle

but it is worth it. Its something I must tackle later this year and I'm not

looking forward to it. Our ground level wooden patio is surrounded by

stone and rocks over sand .. and the more I think on it the more I am

inclined to get a pro to do the job, ;-)

 

Thanks for the nice photos .. good luck with the bear .. and y'all keep

smiling. :-)

Hi Butch,

Thanks for the compliments on the patio/paver, but me and hubby did

not tackle that job. (We just did the construction with wood parts -

Not sure if you went on to our more intensive project photos at

http://birchhillhappenings.com/bedbreak.htm#construct.

 

The paver/block work was done by our sons Austin and Jason. They do

it for a living. Austin owns the company and has won many awards,

National, international and of course State. He is good. In fact the

manufacturer - company owner of the paver and block will only have

him install the block for them on their estates.

Yep, we are pretty proud parents!

 

Back to the little bear - Talked to our DNR - Department of Natural

Resource the wildlife manager for our district and he said he

probably was just 2 years old and Momma had kicked him out on his

own. So being spring is really late here in Minnesota he is

undoubtedly hungry. He said give it a couple weeks with no food

source here (no more seed s for a while - poor birdies) and he will

move on - if not call him and they'll move him to a different

location.

 

Anyway, yep, we love the wild life - oops I mean wildlife!!

Thanks for the compliments on the entrance. Our sons did all that

work. And more since.

 

My hubby and I added on our house and the boys did more work this

past summer. We are now remodeling our Laundry, Kitchen and master

bathroom. We hope to have a newly remodeled home in and out by July

this year!! Can't wait for it to be all done.
