That's cool. The surroundings look like Deer Acres here in Michigan.

We used to visit a park that had a lion drinking fountain when I was a youngin.

Back then, I was afraid of it. :(

Taken just a few minutes ago in Calabasas - UPS truck burned - all the packages were toasted and strewn on the sidewalk. I think I had a package on this truck, on the way to my house!!!

I just found this little fokker by the pool a few minutes ago. Needless to say, it is now headless and tossed over the back fence as critter food. I guess the 'season' is here.

Bubba in his favorite spot, a railway sleeper standing vertical, so he sits just above the wooden fence, where he can see nextdoor's Beagle and be seen by it.. The Beagle hates cats, howls all the time if he sees it... Bubba knows, and just sit's there enjoying the show...

That reminds me of a scene from the Borat movie. Did it lay any eggs?

Capri?

bought house in January, moved in 1st of may
just installed the first "upgrade" myself

the left roof window is the same as the right one before upgrade. basically a cheap plastic&thin multiplex roof window held in place with isolation foam..

overall it went reasonably well considering that i have never done any roofing or carpentry...sawed off one vertical support, then braced it horizontally to the neighboring support beams

Then set 2 support beams off that brace and slammed that Velux in there.

roof tiles probably could use some cosmetic trimming, but for now i'm happy with the result.

I'de like to thank the PP BBS because (although i did not post Velux roof questions) without that, i wouldn't have buggered with porsches as a non experienced mechanic, so now i am not afraid to bugger around with other things i'm not experienced in, such as the roof over my head.

No. Taormina, Sicily from our veranda - Villa Ducale. Note the 'tall ship' in the harbor. It was gone the next morning.
