Good Morning (actually afternoon now) from Candia. It was around 15F this morning
and now a sunny 36F.
I'm checking out photo upload with >1Mb photos. I thought that interesting wildlife
in my area would be suitable and maybe interesting, since I haven't any recent seat
time photos (no snow) to exhibit.
Back in the fall of 2010, we had a porcupine who visited us on a daily basis.
In January of this year, a group of four deer paid us a daily visit looking for food.
Then one not so wild - Max modeling his new Patriot's jacket.
Looks like uploading photos with >1 Mb works again!:cool2:

Beware the big bad gateway. I tried all day, off and on, to post.
We had a frost on the roof again this morning. But turned into a pretty 70F day.
Hope you guys had a good one,
Larro

35.2F @ 21:30 with some light snow and mist ... headed up to 44F tomorrow, then into the 60's for several days ... a welcome change.
Spent most of yesterday sorting fasteners out and more cleaning/sorting in the utility room in basement. Burned a couple pails of creosote from the chimney. Found a brand new photocell on a stalk ... might try to wire that up to control the three lights on the back side of the house.
I also got the door bell repaired (new rubber grommets, which I already had, for the chime bars) and replaced the front door bell switch ($6 and change at the Depot, illuminated even) Picked up another switch for the rear door today.
Figured out a solution (for under $5) for the bad socket in one of the recessed light fixtures in the main bathroom, original socket (shorted out) impossible to find. Picked the parts at the Depot today and just finished replacing the socket and putting it all back together. That room is now all LED's (four 60w "Daylight") Converted over the three night lights in the hall to CFL's.
Tore into the last remaining junk drawer in the kitchen, 50% of what was in it needs to be elsewhere ... will finish that up tomorrow. Replacing the dimmer switch for the chandelier in the dining room is also on the menu for tomorrow, as well as paperwork.
Ran into a snag on upgrading alarm system ... some sensors that would work in a commercial environment might not work so well in a home setting, so rethinking/revisiting that. Lots of reading to do.
Might go see about tearing up the slate tile in the entryway here in a bit.

Yup ... pretty peaceful hereabouts :thumbsup:
Yes, it is.
We've been pretty lax about security in the past but no more.
Enjoy your new rake ... they are a very handy thing to have.

Thanks, Guys! The sad part is the risk of wild life getting to trust humans
and then meeting up with a non-trusting human who thinks nothing of using
them for target practice.
That little fellow visited us on a daily basis for most of the year. Early in the
year, he was just a young one (just looked it up - they're called porcupettes
when young) and returned daily until not long after the photos were taken,
then we never saw him again. We often wondered what happened to him.
Hopefully, nothing as a result of making friends with him.

Wife made a new friend the other morning, albeit temporary.
