Sadly, I never could catch it. I'm hoping that there was a way out. I'd go up there and just wait quietly but never heard anything, so I fooled myself into thinking that the squirrel was just running across my roof and it sounded louder with the new roof material. Sometimes denial is a happy place :-) Thanks for reading!

Wondering if you ever did catch that squirrel? Many years ago we had a problem like that but with mice (we were living in Santa Cruz next to Neary's Lagoon and it was very wildlife friendly). We used humane traps for awhile but the mice were reproducing faster than we were catching them. Eventually we had to use traditional methods to get ahead of the curve :(

BJ AND THE BEAR is one of the most well-known, beloved shows to ever grace the small screen. The cast members became legendary for their roles and the Cartwrights as a family have been both honored and parodied more times than anyone could count. And yet, with all this fame and notoriety, the entire series was never released officially on BJ AND THE BEAR DVD, emphasis on the word "officially," until now.Years ago, 31 episodes of the series were released into public domain and a number of small BJ AND THE BEAR DVD COLLECTION companies produced sets with dozens of different combinations

Congrats, indeed! I know her from her public relations work. But had no idea she was the mayor, too. Very cool!

Yup, even after :-)
I kind of liked my track uniform...black can be so slimming.
I need to get back into posting more about Los Gatos. So much is happening.

I like the new look better--the color is pleasant.

Orange and black for LG High? Really? Even after Halloween is over?

I don't know what happens. I put it in & when I peek, I sometimes see it moving like it's alive. They look kind of like mealworms, and I haven't a clue where they come from....

Our boys love picnics--even if they are just out in the backyard. The San Jose Rose Garden is one of our favorite spots.

Never tried duck eggs though...love the mystery description.

OK, with that headline, I was looking for something way funnier or way kinkier...

We've gone with worm composters, as there is not room in our plot for a real composter. Hmm, do you have the rotating one that doesn't even touch the ground? We might have room for that, but don't you need the stuff to be in contact with the ground to get enough microbes to break it all down? I am looking for options since the worms just do not eat ENOUGH.

My mom gave me a list:
Restaurant James Randall, Forbes Mill Steakhouse, Igatti, Steamers, CB Hannegan's, Sweet Pea's, Andale, Willow Street Wood Fired Pizza, Main Street Burgers.

So, what others :-)?

I love windchimes--but we keep our windows closed a lot, so I never hear them. We need to reposition them closer to the hammock!

2009-07-01T07:17:37.242-07:00

I love the sound of wind chimes. I bet you could restring them yourself. The sound should come from the shape of the pieces, rather than the restringing.

Those were the days, weren't they? I remember riding my bike to Oak Meadow Park--rarely with a parent in tow--or to downtown Los Gatos to hit Old Town or Bare Essentials. Wish my kids could have that freedom.

Actually, now that I think about it further, it may have been Carrow's Nut house. I have an Old Town directory somewhere in my archive, I'll have to check for sure...

Another spot I spent a lot of time, looking at the Halloween masks and such. ;-)

It was Morrow's Nut House. I grew up on Edelen, and spent much of my limited childhood income on their numerous sweets...ah, old Old Town.

Ah, Los Gatos. One of those places I miss from my 5 years in the Bay Area ('98-'03).
I think I may have had lunch at Nick's.
