What do you collect?
I have three collections.
- Bull Terrier figurines and things. Putting this collection on hold. I have far too many and sort of getting rid of some.
- Tee shirts. One can never have too many.
- And finally Gargoyles, mine range in size from tiny to an outdoor six-foot tall torch holder.
I added a new Gargoyle the other day.
I didn’t mean YOU when I said bite me!
Spent the day being pestered by a mosquito determined to give me a record number of bites in one day.
Not to mention flying in my face at odd times doing landings and take offs. Then there were the flits between my eyes and my glasses.
If ever I wanted a mosquito (or probably more, all the bites and pestering couldn’t have come from only one.) dead.
I wanted this one (or those) very dead.
Nice weather we have here…
It’s so nice to have the weather cool enough to turn of the air conditioners and open the house.
The last few nights were almost cold. Great sleeping weather!
It has both dogs acting feisty and more ornery than normal. Crazy critters. They both bug The Curmudgeon to get him to play. It’s good for him and for them.
It’s a darned shame that hurricane Hermine is heading our way to wreck it.
2 down…
We caught another squirrel today. Took him on drive to the country.
Didn’t another squirrel wander through the yard shortly after returning home.
Time to re-set the trap.
First one I caught with pineapple scraps, second one with peanut butter on bread. I think the peanut butter will be the first choice in bait for us.
Time for the squirrels to leave.
We’ve set humane traps and hope to catch and move out the entire population before winter.
They ate all my tomatoes and most of my eggplants this year. They even ate the little avocado plant I’d started from a pit.
I do not want to contend with them again next season.
I want to enjoy fresh vegetables from my garden and not pay the prices at the super market.
So, buh bye tree rats. Your chariot to another neighborhood has arrived.
