Inappropriately pruned.

When I stopped in on Saturday to see how things had progressed Friday after I left, I can see the thinset was applied.

I biked over to the site and was relaxing on the bench under the plum tree when I suddenly felt like I was being watched. I looked to my left, stared down a deer and I took out my camera only to get a bum shot.

It was a young my buck.

Today I got a call from my contractor stating that the warm - hot - weather was not good for tiling. The thinset had not set right. Timelines may change.

I stopped in later to see where things were at...

The front room was cleared out and the floor was sealed.

The south window was covered to stop the heat of the sun.

And the den windows were blocked off as well as the bedroom window.

Meanwhile outside over the weekend I found a new flower. It mysteriously had appeared on the side of my house.... The neighbour tends to drop seeds sometimes!

But sadly the buck I had met on Saturday had some breakfast on Sunday or was it a late night snack... 

My butter lettuce was inappropriately pruned.

The footprint evidence was next to the corn, pumpkin and zucchini.

I got busy today.... I also sprayed the smelly 'stay away deer' spray.  

Things sorta worked keeping the doe away before. Hmm.... Maybe I need shiny things, rather than the blue flagging tape, but it is all I had at the time.

I made fence line and then I messed up the path that leads to it. 

I thought the old water piping was a nice touch.

All the tiles are sitting outside.... Which does not sound very secure, but not much has been secured throughout the build.

I found some free plant give a ways on the side of the road, two blocks away. But it's too hot to play, so when the neighbour called to say hi I went over to sit in the shade.

Enjoying the view over biscotti.
