Hope my singing didn't hurt your ears and your voice superseded mine in a pleasant tone. :) Trish, should you ever try out for the "Voice" I will be there to root for you but can't join for the obvious reasons. So nice to share a song and sentiments with you on Kitty's behalf, Thank You :). Kitty, Thank you for the positive encouragement and listening with ears that know it's the thought that counts:)......Have a great day!......Windee :):D<3 Sun, 18 Mar 2012 15:45:38 +0000 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2012/03/13/vote-for-roadside-landscape-features/#IDComment319001002 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2012/03/14/preserving-land-for-future-generations/#IDComment317187295 Mel, Beautiful thoughts!

You can round off the corners in no time at all. Would be nice if DIY did that for you. but sometimes things don't always go as planned. Or you could tell them your handicap is you can be clumsy at times and maybe then they will round them off if you win. Just a thought. :) Windee :) Thu, 15 Mar 2012 23:59:07 +0000 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2012/03/13/vote-for-roadside-landscape-features/#IDComment317113225 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2012/03/13/vote-for-roadside-landscape-features/#IDComment317109645 Camac, thank you for the info on the mail box. It hadn't crossed my mind it was across the street. Thanks Again, Windee :) Thu, 15 Mar 2012 23:52:40 +0000 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2012/03/13/vote-for-roadside-landscape-features/#IDComment317109645 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2012/03/13/vote-for-roadside-landscape-features/#IDComment317099516 LOL......"so can people"....isn't that the truth, in more ways than one....... thanks...for the chuckles Kitty.......Windee :) Thu, 15 Mar 2012 23:32:59 +0000 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2012/03/13/vote-for-roadside-landscape-features/#IDComment317099516 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2012/03/13/vote-for-roadside-landscape-features/#IDComment317096205 ohhhhhh. I must have been around young ones and just assumed they were all that size. :S .No one told me they grew bigger than that.( I thought they looked young.) May be if they did,they figured I'd never get over my fears. lol Ignorance can be bliss sometimes. LOL I think you are correct, shoulders,,,, slapping my forehead. Ahhh forsure I'm not walking them! Alright, Kitty bring a parasol just incase. It will keep the hot sun off your head, and if need be a shield should you need it. Once again, Camac brought some light to the subject and I am greatful.Thank You Camac I will make sure I am prepared for the future!:S................Windee :):D Thu, 15 Mar 2012 23:26:42 +0000 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2012/03/13/vote-for-roadside-landscape-features/#IDComment317096205 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2012/03/14/preserving-land-for-future-generations/#IDComment317083790 Congratulations to MVLT for the acquisition of the 30 acre parcel of land! I think it was a wonderful idea to donate it for preservation!. My only concern is parking for people who would like to access Peter's pond.Can you put in a drive way that will turn off the road in to a small parking lot (dirt lot would be ok) nestled amongst the trees so it can't be seen from the road or from the BC? Thank You for making yourself accessable for any questions that should arise. :) Good luck with the property when it comes time to enter the sweepstakes, you might find the property crawling with curosity seekers.But I am sure you probably have been alerted to that possibility already.:) Thank you for all that you do so everyone can enjoy nature at it's best!................Sincerely, Windee :) Thu, 15 Mar 2012 23:03:57 +0000 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2012/03/14/preserving-land-for-future-generations/#IDComment317083790 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2012/03/13/vote-for-roadside-landscape-features/#IDComment316450022 Continued : We can help Lisa out as they can eat 1 to 2 percent of their body weight per day! Plenty of dandelions for them to snack on and don't need to be large. Although we can try some miracle grow and see what happens. :) Life is an adventure, we will have to try it :):D_ Hope the raised planters are in the back yard or side of house, not the front! I am having a hard time with the door knockers. Not sure if I would like any of them on those doors. Need door bell. Put lobster knocker to the side of the door? It would make a nice orniment inside too? Well have to go, computer acting up....:( rulled out mouse, got a new one and i am feeling like I am not alone here, things just keep popping up and loosing web page. LOL..........Good Nite everyone! Sleep tight........Windee :) Thu, 15 Mar 2012 03:10:03 +0000 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2012/03/13/vote-for-roadside-landscape-features/#IDComment316450022 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2012/03/13/vote-for-roadside-landscape-features/#IDComment316449813 Missed you too Kitty ! I don't know where the time goes.__Glad you were able to vote with out any difficulty. :)__Tomorrow it will be gone, yearbook that is! :) and I will make sure to celebrate for you come Friday!__ FYI Alpaca's don't seem to be very tall 32 inches to 39 inches, but they can weigh 106lbs to 185lbs! Still not sure about walking them. We will have to see if we can get lessons from Lisa as to what her Alpaca's like or don't. Oh and just so you know pack an unbrella (will be too hot for rain coat) when you visit them, because they can spit too! They usually spit at other Alpaca's but have been known to send some flying in the direction of a human. lol__ Thu, 15 Mar 2012 03:09:39 +0000 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2012/03/13/vote-for-roadside-landscape-features/#IDComment316449813 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2012/03/14/preserving-land-for-future-generations/#IDComment316430798 Very nice thoughts Anne.....Love your post! Windee :) Thu, 15 Mar 2012 02:34:26 +0000 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2012/03/14/preserving-land-for-future-generations/#IDComment316430798 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2012/03/14/preserving-land-for-future-generations/#IDComment316428045 I think it's great they donated the land! Hooray! Great move!!! Have to agree with both you and Clive. Can skate on the pond ,use the land and don't have to worry about it. The taxes will be less, and 21 acres is much more manageable. Good Move!!!

Second time writing this post :( It seems my mouse has a mind of its own, so gonna make this quick before I have another do over. ;) Glad you are enjoying this round! Been thinking about you since the start of the landscape voting and wondering how it was going for you. Poked my head in after the start of the first one, but didn't sound like you were enjoying it, so glad you like this better! Post away!!!! You go girl! :) This is your favorite part. Enjoy!!!! Thank you for bringing me up to speed, re: smart phones. what do you do if you discover your being filmed? Can't tackle the guy or girl, right? I'm weak in this area.:) Too bad you couldn't get paid if it wound up on You Tube, could make a fortune! lol sorry...We both be rich from the sounds of things! I used to look around for Candid Camera when these things happened. I was relieved when they went off the air and thought I was safe. Wrong Again. Hope the smart phone never get's ya! Good Night.

I was mortified!!! Can you imagine, the dog was only 6 months old when it happened. He was a big, beautiful dog which I never walked again. lol Suprised to hear that aren't you.......lol Husband couldn't understand why I always refused to walk the dog, guess he would have had to be there to fully understand. Probably should have shown him the the rather large grass stains on both knees on jeans so he would have had a visual and a little more perspective on the situation. Glad every one loves this round Finally..! got to run mouse is doing funny things and have to get to bed after one more post. Hope all is well with you and your family xD:)<3 Windee Sleep Well!

Yes, he did do that, he spotted a puppy and the next thing I knew was I on my knees (and not necessarly in prayer) headed in a direction I wasn't planning on going. Yup, eventually got up, brushed myself off except for the grass stains on jeans and went and sat in the car until the kids were done playing. Didn't have any ice to cool the blush in my cheeks though. So that was why a trip to Peru was in order. Have to know how to deal with Alpaca's should they turn out to be neighbors and danelion purveyors . They will eat them and more will grow..,.,,..Yes.........! ........................................LOL__Love the choices this round. This house has everything and more, than anyone could ever want!!!__Is that door knocker going to look funny below the glass panels?__Well got to run.....have to be somewhere.....so glad Mel likes this round....You go girl! Enjoy Posting ladies.........Windee :) Tue, 13 Mar 2012 22:37:49 +0000 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2012/03/13/vote-for-roadside-landscape-features/#IDComment315485857 http://blog.diynetwork.com/blogcabin/2012/03/13/vote-for-roadside-landscape-features/#IDComment315485587 Hi all,__ Kitty, I didn't have any trouble voting just to let you know. It took no time at all to vote.( Wonder if that is the difference of liking choices?) Hope later doesn't present any problems for registering your votes.__Sounds like you have been VERY busy! Finally completed your year book, now you can relax!!!!! Hooray for you! Must be a relief to have it done and out of the way! We should celebrate with you on Friday!__I went over to Lisa's fb site and got lost looking at all her picts.After that took a trip to Peru to study Alpaca's. (Just got back in time to vote. : ) Had to go learn about these adorable creatures.
