Oh heck sissy they are so small your hubby won't even notice 2 more, good luck with that

you sure can't find there poopies in the back yard but you can find king arthurs hit it with the lawn mower and you know

Ha Ha and yep the little pups go like rabbit turds but that big old king is like having a lion! I walked by a house that had a bunch of Great Dane puppies running all over today. They have 3 big adult ones too. Two white ones w/ black spots and one pure black one. All the pups were black. They must spend lots feeding those giants!

and lots cleaning up after what comes out the other end .

That flea market looks like they had lots of cool stuff. Sounds like a fun day. Love the metal sunflowers!

 

[sissy]

It is a town wide flea market and it happens 2 times a year labor day and memorial day .We wanted to stay longer but I don't like traveling those curvy mountain roads at night .

@sissy I hope you don't mind that I borrowed and doctored one of your build pics....

I've been trying to come up with a way to finish off the edging of my pond, and you have given me an idea -- but I didn't want to hi-jack your showcase thread.....

[sissy]

no problem I am glad my crazy ideas help some one a little .

@sissy I saw this and thought of you building a lighthouse. They are made from pots. I thought you might enjoy it.

 

[Mmathis]

How cute & how much fun that would be to make!

 

[tbendl]

Yes they are super cute and they look easy enough to make.

Neat T and wonder what it is they made the windows and railing out of for the red one? Looks like it has a real light glowing on top too. That would be neat out in a garden at night

 

[tbendl]

The windows look like they are painted white with black pin striping for the panes. I'm not sure what they used for the railing, I bet you could find something at a surplus place in the toy section though. The light could be either lamp lights or you could even put a tea candle on top.

 

[sissy]

Well filters and hoses do freeze .I did not think it was going to really get that bad and left my hoses in the filters instead of putting them down into the pond like I usually do and now snow is coming this way .Picked up some of the shingles but the wind is to cold to stay out there for long .I just knew old man winter was not going to give up

 

[j.w]

That's a real bummer sissy. Now you learned to put them down into the pond no matter what. As for all the roofing, yikes what a mess!
