Coony has not been around so much since we closed off half the shed. I have lived here over 30 years, and have not had problems with them...
Living out in the country is wonderful. Of course, there are chores to do, but even those are a blessing. While I was out feeding my animals...
Since I have done this multiple times, here is my experience. Talk softly to them. Put food out for them. Offer to let them sniff your hand when...
I have some cannas, they might be moved. And I have thousands of irises. I had planted some down there, but they are gone. Guess I can try some...
A few years ago, before I had to go offline, I posted about my pond garden. I had not been able to clear the path for about 3 years due to mower...
Your planter idea turned out great. Welding is a handy skill to have.
These might not qualify as "junque"... but I hate to throw them away. I get some of my medicines in small ice chests, and wanted to do something...
I always drain them when they are done, add cold tap water, plus one of those reusable ice packs. Ice cubes work well too. I let them cool like...
I am being careful on those things... And there is no end to one's own work at home. But helping others takes first place.

Usually, bees do not get aggressive around me. I was merely walking by the bird house to feed my horse; and the second time I went out to pick...
I never knew they nested in groups. And I never met a mean, nasty bumble bee before. I am over 60. I have a website for bumble bees in my other...
This past month I have been attacked twice by vicious bumble bees. The first time they stung me on my upper lip. I am very allergic to bee stings,...
I love the smell of peppermint! It smells lovely to me. But getting hold of anything more than small amounts, is rather difficult and pricey...
thanks for the ideas. Maybe I can try the peppermint oil on the bird houses I have left. I hate to burn the one, it is a little wooden...
Hmm. I can do that in the bluebird house, but may have to burn or take apart the others and remake them? I had suggested to my friend to soak...
Last year, and this year I have been having problems with bees (bumble types), wasps and hornets invading my birdhouses. I have cleaned them out,...
It is my SON who is doing all the work. DH is deceased. But I do appreciate all of his hard work. He even made a sprinkler for the raised bed....
