Ugh.

Three weeks ago hubby built an outdoor compost bin for me. We bought some nice terra cotta scalloped edging and made a roughly 5’x5′ square. Inside the square he used some posts to hold the rabbit fence which now goes on the inside perimeter. It’s about 2 1/2″ feet high which we thought would be enough, but yesterday I was so upset to see some animal poop in the bin. GRRRR…. This is what I *don’t* like about open yards. We’d put a fence up except we still see teens and dogs going OVER the fences and walking through neighbors’ yards. Since we just moved here I’m not sure we should complain about this because this seems to be the way it’s been for a while — the neighborhood is about 13 years old and many of the neighbors had their houses built here so they’ve known each other that long. The only thing is us newbies have to put up with *their* habits. Sigh….

I’m still dreaming of that 2-acre lot…. neighbors that are still near but far enough to not bother us…. meanwhile I’ll have to put some kind of poultry netting perhaps, over this outdoor bin.
