Beau Peep Notice Board

It is funny that with all the dangerous animals we have, that a squirrel would take out 4 sheds, old machinery and a half acre of trees.

Well at least Alberta has no rats and the only venomous snake is in the far south of the province in the semi desert area - the prairie rattlesnake.

It is indeed a land of fire and ice.   

I wonder what will happen today...

Two more critter tales:
 
In Canada they run the power lines overhead and the telephone lines (when we had them for landlines) underground. Well it seems that a squirrel shorted out a power line, either by its own volition or was dropped by a bird of prey but the result was a half acre fire and a lengthy visit by the fire department, this was last week when we were on extreme fire alerts province-wide.  Nothing of much value was lost and thankfully the hot spots are being kept in check.

The other story it that the beavers have been taking trees quite close to our house, I can now see the veggie garden from the house were before it was hidden. They also chewed up my watering hose.

It’s like living in a Disney nightmare.

By the way, Diane, have any dinosaur bones turned up in that lovely garden of yours?

I made a strawberry tea because our son was coming to visit. This is also the weekend we plant garden seeds in northern Alberta.

I am doing a strawberry tea for Victoria Day Weekend and who should show up?

hope this makes up for lack of moose pics this past winter Roger.
