kathy...have you seen that book that shows you how to use styrofoam to make planter boxes and architectural pieces that look like they're old enough to have come from ancient Rome? I will have to get the book from my daughter and post the name of it...it's just beautiful when it's done. I only saw the book for a few minutes quite a few months ago, but I am quite sure they used concrete on the styrofoam.

Oh my this is quite a touchy issue! I could not find any more of the 3 foot dollar store fency things yesterday, and I have calmed down. There are still other dollar stores to look and at the very least I can still erect something on the corners and post the sign. I do love the idea of snapping a photo but again... I don't want to add to a negative community feeling since I have very good neighbours at this end. Don't want to appear to be a grouch. She normally walks her dog about 6:30 pm - a good time for me to 'water' outside. Besides, she does have a lovely dog and if I could nicely say hello, pet the dog and just mention again my concerns in a diplomatic way I'd probably see a better result. If that doesn't work, then the gloves are off and I will be out with my camera and I will make a garden sign with one of those red lined circles over the top of it to embarrass her since I'm sure her neighbours also pass by walking home from the bus. Okay, there's a little mean streak there (part of my obsessive depressive disorder - which I am working hard to overcome - NOT healthy at all). Thanks for the tips and comments. It's always good to look at both sides of the coins. As for wildlife poop - I've not noticed any in my lawn or garden...but I'm sure they pee some where! Cheers, McPeg

Thanks everyone. I just think he's the cutest troll ever! YaYa, if I remember correctly.....my cat, Just Galore, was named by you and FlamingO! I was totally clueless when it came to Just Galore! BTW, my sweet little kitty always sits on top of my monitor and watches me carefully while I type. She hasn't made any motorcycle trips in quite some time.

desertsteph, Dawn knows that she is not allowed to sell her jewelry within the forums, nor can she post a website if she has one. But you should make sure that you have your private message option ON in your Houzz member page. That way, Dawn can contact you in person should she have some of her beautiful pieces for sale. Hopefully, Dawn has her PM option on; if so get in touch with her that way. We all have the option to use Houzz private messaging and it's a good way to contact other members off forum. That way, both you and Dawn stay out of trouble! ;-)
