Birdhouses

Some blurry photographs of birdhouses.

Spring

Spring is here with the first Epi blooming under the gazebo in my back yard.

These plants are such a joy when they bloom. In a few days I will have twenty basketball sized flowers in this pot.

They look like cactus and get gangly in the Fall but are easy to maintain.

Best is you hang them to play keep away from snails.

I don't use snail bait or poison in my garden.

I put out beer or yeast with sugar water to collect slugs and get some of the snails

drunk. Then it is easy to get rid of them.

Did you know that snail slime is very nutrient for skin?

Gross you say, just wait some salon in Newport Beach will be putting

snails on you for a facial. LOL

Some raised bed ideas- galvanized large animal troughs

A method to keep your poppies, delphinium and vegetables away

from the bunnies. We have a bad rabbit problem in Orange County

I believe the drought has brought them all out from the canyons.

I put some metal simple windmills and old CD's on strings to

have some flashy lights to scare them.

The shiny seems to have brought the crows back.

Sigh Just when I made friends with the crows to

stay away from the mourning doves nest.

I took this photo of bougainvillea being dumped. Thought you might

think it funny as I enjoyed it driving home from my office this week.

Mortgage rates are at amazing new lows. I have been busy.

Call for a quote you probably can get out of your FHA loan or Mortgage

Insurance with the increases in property values.

Big Sur

Spring arrives in California.

Some photographs of road trip with my

daughter. At  Big Sur Inn the wisteria is in full bloom.

Northern California Real Estate markets have heated up.

Oakland, San Jose, and San Francisco are seller's markets.

Racing behind are San Mateo, Newport Beach and Laguna Beach.

Today the bond market saw a rally, it's a good day to lock down

your mortgage loan.

Meanwhile- the 50-day moving average crosses throuth

the 200-day moving average,

suggesting a loss of momentum in the market.

Also known as a death cross to bond traders.

Enjoy the photographs and the ride.

 

Wisteria at the entrance

Pretty blue and white dishes




A bird house in the woods

 A bird house? A house for cats? LOL

Birdhouses I bought on sale ( a dollar each at Target)

I wonder if my morning doves will like them.
