The fence in the southwest corner was vandalized.  It lasted 20 days longer than I though it would with as much traffic as there was.

We will need to kill the ground hornet nest near the drive - it is huge!

Ground hornet nest.JPG (1318522 bytes) This is a ground hornet or yellow jacket nest that is near the main drive.  The roller chopper made a pass over it and they came out by the thousands!  We will attempt to kill them by dumping dirt on the entrance.  I hope my aim is good!
