Deer visits

Lately the deer have been hanging around in back of our house.  We like that.  It's nice seeing them out there.  They are quite close and yesterday they were just sitting in the grass.  Guillermo even went out in the yard and climbed up on the blocks to refill the bird feeder and all those deer did was keep an eye on him.  They watched him the entire time but they never even moved.  Here's a picture of them hanging around back there.

On Friday last week, we noticed some symbols painted on the street in front of our house.  Those same symbols were painted in front of a few other houses also.  One was red and the other was yellow.  We wondered if red meant electric and yellow gas and what was going to be done.  Well, today we possibly found out.  We got a knock on the door and it was the people from  AT & T saying they needed to go in our back yard to dig up a phone box because they were going to be installing U-Verse in our neighborhood.  Oh well, so far they haven't wrecked anything except for the big hole in the back yard.  At least, so far, they haven't needed to dig under any garden or anything we planted.  And they said they would replace our grass when they are done, so that's good.

And Guillermo hasn't had anymore trouble with the raccoons and even though the squirrels continue to make attempts, it is obvious that it is too hard and too much trouble for them to get to the bird seed.  So, maybe just maybe Guillermo won!!!!
