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.

WOOHOO! Monarch eggs!

9 years ago

I came home from work yesterday and saw a Monarch fluttering about in the neighbors yard. I watched, hoping to see it fly into my yard, but it flew away.

I decided to check the common (A. Syriaca) and Tropical Milkweed (A. Curassavica) in my garden and found 8 Monarch eggs (and 1 dud)

First time in about 3-4 years to get cats. Time to find and dust off out the enclosures!
