The angles were very hard to get right, it’s not perfect but I did pretty good.
Trashed construction clothes are practical while rigging the double pulley to hoist subflooring.
This will be a quirky tiny room with a great view, both kids claimed it as their own.
I guess it’s a mast year for… raccoons? They’re all around the house every night causing a ruckus. I’m trying to deter them from coming, even took out a few, only to have more come back. In past years, we’d run into them here and there, but this year the house and its surrounding seems to be their established playground every night, it is a bit baffling. I know it’s only a matter of time before they cause damage that really stings. They’ve already been trying to get in the chicken coop.
I swear to god if you make the skunk spray I will smite all of you.
With plants more established, and no clear effect, I decided to relax counter measures a bit this year and see if maybe the orchard, fruit trees, and garden could do with less fencing. The sentence was immediate, we didn’t get as many berries, trees got damaged, and hard work was voided. It is now clear that while various measures aren’t 100% effective, they definitely help. With this confirmed, they’ll get implemented with more vehemence next year.
It’s a lot less work and it looks better without fences. What a shame.
