My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Migrator

21 years ago

I just saw my first migrator since all the others left here on Monday. I can't believe I got so excited. Usually when they leave that is it for the year. I guess those tall vines and salvias proved to be a beacon.

I had just walked into the kitchen and glanced out the window as I have been doing every day since Monday. I watched as it went from flower to flowr. I first saw it at the Black and Blue then the coral nymph salvia then the coral honeysuckle before I lost sight of it in the overgrown thicket. What a treat!!!!
