Hawk visitor

A young hawk visited our deck yesterday.  Hawks in the neighborhood usually means there there will be no birds for awhile.

Water, water everywhere

Water problems stuck the homestead from top to bottom.  The ceiling in one of the bedrooms was showing water damage after the last rain storm.  Our contractor checked out the roof and found one corner was in bad shape. He spent all day rebuilding that part of the roof. Then two days in a row we had major plumbings problem resulting in water damage to the basement ceiling and a general mess in the up and downstairs bathrooms.  Rotor-Rooter spent a hour and a half fixing the problem.

Now it is time to relax until the bills come.
