Cat on a cold snowy roof

 

Harley is my big fat cat, who one would think is a very tough bruiser and beats up all the neighborhood cats, well guess again, he is the biggest fraidy cat there is, he gets chased and very scared and runs up onto our roof to avoid the so called dangers, which are usually, the neighbors cats that just come over to play with him

House for rent- anyone want to move in?

 Kitchen in the midst of an overhaul of appliances. They were pretty old so we decided to get new ones.  Ray scored and got a new stove, fridge and dishwasher for $1200 for all three
 Living room with woodstove hookup
 The kitchen dining area
 One of the bedrooms
 Another shot of the living room
 The other bedroom
 The same other bedroom, different view showing the high ceilings
 Washer and dryer, to the left is the bathroom.  This is off the kitchen dining area
 Bathroom
 bathroom again
 OK here is the YUK!  This was behind the fridge.  Did anyone ever clean?  The rest of the place was pretty dirty but this is just plain nasty!
Another view of YUK  This was under the stove.

New Cell phone proposed location

 To the left behind that road sign is the hunt club location that they want to put a cell phone tower.  They say it will be 140 feet back from the road and 190 feet  high
 The driveway entrance to the hunt club.   Notice they have been there since 1940?  I didn't know they were there that long.
 The road looking down to hunt club.  It is on the right side right before the road comes to an end.  Up after the road ends, there is a hiking trail (Blue Trail) where we used to ride our horses because the trail eventually leads back to our part of town which is about 5 miles from this location if you went by road
 Looking down the road again, hunt club is on the right.  Do you think a cell tower would be able to be seen?
 Another view of the road
The beginning of the road where the tower is supposed to go, up over that crest in the road and then down a hill.  I have verizon service.  At & T are the ones that want this tower because they have poor service.  My service works great.  I read somewhere that AT & T has received the most complaints about service and when we asked them at the last meeting why Verizon works and thiers does not, all they could say was they can't comment on another carrier.  Hmmmm,  maybe they just neen better equipment?  I am being bombarded by some people about supporting this tower,  I don't support or not support it really, I don't know what to do, we need service for emergencies but I don't think a tower would solve it but I don't see how it will be even seen from this location, I think AT & T just needs to beef up what they have on the other towers just like Verizon.  What do you all think?

Eggs for sale

Tell me honestly what do you think, Chicken too small?  Words too small on top, I just realized it now it is bigger on bottom.  I am going to paint the other side too so it can be seen on both sides hanging from a hook on a tree

Rug Hooking and a new sign

 I am Almost done with this rug.  Been ignoring it lately so I need to sit down and just finish it
 Beginning of a sign request I had for the kid that I made a sign for last year.  He sells his own eggs for $2 a dozen. 
I found a nice piece of wood at home depot for $5 to make the sign out of.  I forgot to take a picture before I painted it but I don't think I could have even attempted to make a sign of this size for that price.  It was well worth the money to have it already cut and sanded so nice.

Ok I'm crazy

I haven't even finished the other rug hook I started and I bought another kit, this one is a little smaller but I just couldn't help to start it because I also got a new hook and it's so much easier to use and does not hurt my hand like my other one does.
