Re: Rick\'s Place 2nd Picture

I have a friend that lives on along the fairway at a golf course. That picture looks a lot like the view from his back yard. Very Nice! The only problem is that it looks like you've got most of your tractor work done already!

Take Care,
Boots

Very nice place with an excellent view. Looks like one of my favorite fairways at one of the golf courses in Grand Blanc. How many acres do you actually mow and maintain?

RICK: I noticed the duck boxes in the picture. Do you have many wood ducks in your area? I had to put a metal Grill across the top of my fireplace to keep the little buggers out. the try to nest in the pipe, get down inside and can't get out.

Re: Rick\'s Place 2nd Picture

I've yet to see a picture w/ you on your TC29D.
Looks like a golf coarse and I bet the wildlife visit you often.

BPence asked "How many acres do you actually mow and maintain?"

It is a 5 acre lot & I maintain/mow all of it (& love it). The back yard (in the pics) is about 4 acres & the house sits on the remaining (front) acre. We have fenced from the back of the house to the back of the lot to keep our 5 English Springer Spaniels in & other dogs out.

Jim: Now you're going to make me look stupid - what are duck boxes. I do not think I have them. There must be something in one of the pics that looks like a duck box, but ya got me on that one. However we do have fox, cyotes, hawks, turkey vultures, eagles, and of corse deer in the area.

Re: Rick\'s Place 2nd Picture

RICK there seems to be some type of box nailed up in the top of the tree that is near the railing. Here in Arkansas we make wooden boxes out of cypress about16"X16" by 18" tall and nail them up in trees for the wood ducks to nest in.

Re: Rick\'s Place 2nd Picture

Ah, now I understand. They were an attempt by the previous owner to attract bluebirds. We need to clean and move them to get bluebirds in the yard. We also have had a purple martin condo in the yard. Hopefully we will see some this year.

Re: Rick\'s Place 2nd Picture

Rick. I know you didn't take that picture in the last month or so. I live in the Township just north of you. Are you sure you didn't take that picture at one of the many Golf Courses around you?/w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif
