Darn sorry credes, it was looking so nice. I have seen coon prints but they have not bothered anything. Today a heron flew over, paused looked down at the pond and kept going............
Well I have updated my profile picture and title to reflect my new occupation of Raccoon Hunter. Expect a picture of a grave stone one day here that is now my life goals.
Well this has been my day of repairing and reinforcing. The new image is the pond back together with plants slightly worse for the wear. I reinforced the frame that supports the planter with 2 inch pvc pipe tied into what was installed already. Then drilled through the pvc pipe running 3 inch deck screws through that into the bottom of the pot. Its pretty stable and stuck in place I hope. I also put down around the deck critter ridder I picked up from home depot it seems to be a type of solid pepper spray.
Now to run rope over the tree branches and hook a giant log to it so when the blasted raccoons run across the rope it will release the 5000 lbs log right into there heads. ha ha ha ha ha ha ummmm I'm okay really......... I saw that on Predator and it worked for Arnold.
