Win a Bamboletta..see June 15th post below!
If you’ve been reading this blog for a while you will know about my love/hate relationship with the deer in the ‘hood. We have lots of deer around, we live basically in the forest with farmland all around us. Last year we grew a garden that was demolished by the deer. Deer, 1 point. This year we thought we’d get smart and construct a fence around our garden. We only took it to 4 feet tall and then I planned to decorate the 2 feet above (the fence posts are 6 feet) with hanging bits of things that I collect- sea glass, driftwood..you get the idea. We had many locals look at our fence, shake their heads and say..’you best put on that extra 2 feet soon’. Thinking they were all being a bit dramatic, decorating the top 2 feet got put to 134 on the list of 543 things to do. While inspecting thegarden this morning, I noticed that my watermelon plant was gone..so were half of our bean plants and the peas! AND they left their ‘business’ in the garden..three times!!! Flippin’ deer! Deer- 2 points. Guess what moved up to the top of my list of things to do tomorrow?
