Lets know how your progress goes and how effective it will be.Sometimes being frugal ends up being more costly in the long run. I have families of geese coming ashore in my back yard to wreak havoc and defecate in my back yard.
Stretching a fishing line “fence” along the shoreline will deter them. I figured that I needed 4 stakes about 20’ apart to wrap the fishing line around.
So I bought 2 - 26” aluminum deck railing spindles. Cut them in half to make 4- 13” stakes. Then pounded them into the shoreline and wrapped fishing line between the stakes.
Problem is that the top of the stakes are only about 8” above ground after being set in the ground. So the string line is 8” above ground. Perfect height for adult geese to step over while the babies crawl under on their way to abuse my yard.
So back to the big box store tomorrow to buy 4 more spindles. This time I won’t cut them in half. I need to install the string line about 12” - 15” above ground to deter the adult geese. The babies won’t come ashore if the adults don’t.
after the donation, I suddenly noticed that blood was pouring down my arm. They rebandaged me and it stopped. I wasn't concerned about the extra blood loss, but it sure did make a mess on my clothes, the table, the chair and the floor. I have given blood about 70 times and this is the first time that has happened to me.
Got the text this morning from my daughter that I prayed was coming … “Dad they offered me the job!”
Youngest daughter (22 y.o.) wrapped up a graduated degree in nursing this month at Johns Hopkins and today a very highly rated hospital in Cleveland offered her a nursing position in their cardiac surgery unit. Apparently this hospital is ranked #1 in the nation for their cardiac unit, which is why my kid went after it.
Can’t wait to see how high this kid flys!

I cut the roll to what I need, and installed grommets using an inexpensive kit from Harbor Freight. I don't care what people say about Harbor Freight. They've got useful stuff, and you can't blame the Chinese for making what nobody else does.
