Hi, back again - I just had a drop in - a German woman and her mother staying tonight and possibly tomorrow night as well. So, we are still having some business, but things are slowing down.
This hornet nest was found next door to us in Upper Clements Park's apple orchard. It's huge!
Another view.
Since people go into the orchard to pick apples, Gary made this sign as a warning - as it is a really active nest and we don't want anyone getting stung! Since our graphic designer has moved to Halifax, we have been forced to try and do this stuff ourselves - I think Gary did a fine job on this.
Working on some other fall projects, since the slate work is done, we decided to put some nice, white vinyl lattice to finish off under the deck.
I guess this picture should have come first, as Gary measures for the last panel. Since we don't want the bunnies going back and forth through the lattice holes, Gary had to put chicken wire on the back side - you would be amazed at the small hole those creatures can get through!
In other news, Brenton has a new job at Geox - a shoe store in Park Lane Mall, which is a 4 minute walk from his apartment. This new job will save him a 1 1/2 hour bus commute (each way!) every day so he is happy about that. The experience that he gained at Golftown was helpful in getting this job - thanks big brother Jay! Jason is about as good as me at updating his blog. For those on facebook - Jason has a bunch of pictures from his summer vacation with Shannon and some fall pics of doing a corn maze with Shannon and her two children.
I know Frank and Cathy are on a trip to see Joseph and family and Michelle and family so I'll be anxiously awaiting some photos from that trip.
