  • We have a plastic pool now but this would be just perfect. They could play in their pool and I could cool off in mine. heheh.

everything wonderful for our pets

Not sure who sells these but will let you know as soon as I find out or maybe someone here knows. Our Vet just posted it on FB I love the deck idea too. I wonder if I could make it out of pallets and old cedar?

recycled Pallets

I just saw this on Facebook and wish I had a source to this many pallets. Wow. Is this awesome or what. I would have to stabilize it much more then it is but it is such a great idea. Still waiting for holes for 4x4's for my recycled french door green house. Hope to get it done before winter sets in.

Bumble Bees

I have some awesome bumble bees that do an awesome job of pollinating my garden and lavender. The problem I have is that they have decided to make their nest under my back porch. There is a little opening and I can see them going in and out and they aren't hurting anyone. My question is do they eat wood and can they get into the house. I hate to kill them but I also don't want them living inside with me? HELP ! What should I do?

I am off to a start on my recycled greenhouse

Well, I got the flooring done yesterday. I put two pallets together then nailed 1x4 on top to connect and cover the top of the pallets. I had to use a hand saw, WHEW, to cut a few of the boards, but my friend loaned me a sawsall and another little type of saw to use today. At least its a start.
