8.4.2022

Mom and I left this morning to go to my printer and run some errands.  Yet again, we found the trashcan knocked over (very heavy because it's full of wood) and trash bag all opened.


Jim went down and got the trail cam disk and downloaded the pictures - we do have a bear!  You can see him going through the trash at the far left of this shot (ignore the date stamp!)...


And walking away after eating our trash - look at those glowing eyes on the right side of this pic...


Jim texted our next door neighbor - he had been sent this picture of the bear from another neighbor.  It's really big!


I called the town, who said they had multiple reports of the bear and gave me a number to call the area agent of the NYS Dept of Environmental Conservation.  This guy said there have been multiple reports at a trailer park farther down our road as well as other sightings.  Our neighbor was out of town, so he wanted us to go and make sure his trash cans were okay.

Once Jim was able to get to work, he was outside working on the lean to.  He took down one section of scaffolding...


Starting to work on making blocking for the front...


Attaching blocking...


An air conditioning update - it got warm today and is supposed to rain.  We turned on the AC in both bedrooms mid-morning and left the doors open.  The entire living space feels wonderful!  All Jim's hard work definitely paid off.  We still like the mountain air so will have the windows open when possible, but it's so nice to have it when you need it!
