Hey, send me a link to your forum page, please.

Sending warm thoughts your way. Again, so sorry for your loss.

'twas a bummer indeed. I've had dogs during all of my 6 decades, as has my wife. Now, when we need a dog "fix", we just drive over to our nearest daughter's house (about 10 miles distant). They have two dogs, two cats, two kids. You get the idea...

Thanks lizzie. The pooch is ChewBacca - Chewy for short.
I had to give him away for health reasons, (mine, not his), and we've missed his zany insanity. Next album will be the cats. Good company - saner energy levels.

No worries on the timing.

I've been looking around for the stupid plans (they were on-line) and now I cannot seem to find the design I was referring to....

Color me frustrated. If I find them again we may be able to discuss this further.

Thanks!

Martin houses, eh?
I've found a plan for a Martin house which allows it to be effectively closed to other birds during the months of the Martins' absence. It has a pulley-operated mechanism that lowers doors over all the openings. I think it might actually work to prevent the starlings, sparrows and others from ruining the neighborhood, but it is a lot of work and expense to build.

What do you think? Would this work?

yup. i'll be sticking around a bit.

The pleasure is all mine.

Sure I will. I would never plagiarize something you created.

Do you mind if I post your beehive post on another board, with a link back here, of course, giving credit to you? I think it is just awesome.
