Were these really taken this week? I think I need to move. We have had snow on the ground for about 2 months now. Your pictures are beautiful. Need to put New Leaf on my list. I am not buying any this year though. LOL Shadow

Actually, Anj, it's old and rusted anyway...but still looks pretty good...so I'll punch holes in the bottom for drainage. Otherwise the water would just sit in it. I have two old boilers and several other metal things with holes punched in the bottoms, and they work well for planters. At first I tried using stones in the bottoms, but finally gave up and punched the holes. Saves a lot of headaches...and lost flowers! DH loved the "Welcome Wagon" idea! ~Sandy~

Break the stupid thing clean off and jam in a piece of thick wire. Long as it fits tight it's just as good. Might even be better than before. Mostly you need length not height. Longer it is the better reception. So if you use a long wire just curve it back. If it's real long then tether the end to your back bumper with a string.

Ditto. TV ads on occasion but no radio. But then the stations I listen to would not necessarily be attracting those who have an interest in this site.
