Happy New Year!

 

I know it's the dead of winter but the spring

bloomers are coming up and starting to bud

and bloom.

Happy Holiday!

 

Does Anyone Know These People or Vehicle?

 

Yes, our cameras work!  We have 6 videos

on what they were doing.  The east resident

from our home also have cameras so they

too should have video of them in their pink 

recycle bin.

This is what we caught on our cameras 

12/9/2025-2:50 am to 3:29 am, then

headed north into Westmoor 2 when 

leaving our area.

As we watch this vehicle cruise the

hood before coming down to go though 

recycle bins.  Sorry no recycle bottles,

cans or pop bottles will be found in 

our recycle bin.

Yes, this was reported. We will be 

turning on the sirens that come with

our cameras.

As stated in VMC 6.12.216, scavenging

of recyclables (or solid waste) is against

the law. A person must ask the homeowner 

for permission before removing recyclables 

from a container. If you see someone taking 

recyclables, please call 3-1-1 and report it 

as a "theft of recyclables." If the person

is using a vehicle, please write down the 

license plate number and a description 

of the vehicle. Always exercise caution 

and consider your personal safety. Do not 

confront the individual.

December Shinning!

 

Just half way done!  Shine On!!

We currently have 2,000 LED solar lights on 

the house.  

This evening around 5 pm I was checking to

see if all the lights were on and looked to 

the east to see the red, white and blue light

from one of the planes coming in.  The 

flight path is usually north of us a few 

blocks but this plane wasn't on the path

as it flew right over the house!  Love it!!

With the storm coming in for the next

few days the lights will be faint or not

at all!  Got to love the solar lights!

Happy Thanksgiving!

 What are you thankful for?

West Fence Line!

 

The above photos are from early fall when I had

cut the hostas down.

Here is what it looks like today, 11/19/2025

I have been working hard to prepare and cleanup

the yard for winter!  

Getting Ready For Winter

 

Before photo:

After:

I spent all day outside cleaning up 

along the north fence line.  Stripping

plants leaves and cleaning up the 

leaves that come out of the north

tree.  While vacing up at 4 pm the

smell of smoke was strong.  I finished

and went in as again no one should have

to smell firepit smoke!  Funny how fast 

it stopped!

Still a lot to strip and cleanup.

As of today we have taken 3-64 gallon

bins of leaves off our property of mulched

leaves that have blown into our yard. They 

are a mix of leaves and evergreens so the 

county's leaf coupon isn't helping us due 

to they only want leaves no evergreen mix.

No we will not compost these, to acidy.

Hopefully after our bins will be emptied

on Monday we can start on ours that need

to fill our bins.  We have 3 cans for our stuff

full already.

As of today we have now taken 5-64 gallon 

yard debris bins off our yard.  Yesterday was

my day to vac the whole yard again to clean

all the leaves that have blown in from the last

east winds.
