I need to do that. We have a hole in the ground half filled with packed limestone ready for the concrete footer.

I fully expect to be hosing cement off of dogs shortly thereafter.

No bats in the bat house. After spotting that bat I was hoping they’d taken up residence.

Did you have bats in the bat house? I just read that our hummingbird feeder going down overnight is probably bats, supposedly hummers don’t feed at night. We lose a couple of inches some nights.

I just read, in the Albion News Era, that Harvest House is closing on August 20. Sad.
