The Survivor

This is literally the only reachable rose that survived the deer incursion of a few nights ago. I don't know how they missed it, maybe they were full after eating about 100 other roses.



Yesterday it rained off and on all day so I completed the lighting project in the shop. I drove down to Home Depot and bought a cheap two bulb florescent fixture and hung it over the workbench. I am now up to date.

Here is my workshop. It is only 12 X 12 so there is no room to let it get messy, at least no messier than it is now. A couple of weeks ago you could hardly walk in the door. My dad and I banged it together in a weekend soon after we bought the house in 1989. He told me it was too small and he was right.

    1. That is so true of everything. Our first house was 875 square feet and had just as much free space as the current one which is 1900+ square feet.

  2. Will your next blog speak to some recent deer meat that is now stored in the freezer? Sheesh!!! Your deer sure like roses!

    1. We had a mailman with a pickup truck and a bow and arrow who offered to get rid of our problem but we chickened out because there were babies around. Those babies are nor the great grandparents of the current crop.

  3. Beautiful rose, almost to beautiful to be real! Your workshop looks like a cool hangout.

  4. Sounds like you are both just relaxing with the day to day and happy. Good place to be.

  5. Is it wrong if I'm cheering for the deer?
