This is the story of one city mouse to country mouse, and one relieved-to-be-returning country mouse. Shaking off the city with its claustrophobia and conveniences. Spreading our wings and souls in the beautiful foothills of North Carolina, USA. Come help us on this journey.

Pallet Planter, Pallet Bird Nest, Pallet Table
After the loggers wrapped up, about the same time as we were getting all our stuff here, we were able to catch our breath, in small amounts...
Among the "rest and relaxation" are little "projects" to help one unwind. One such project involved taking a plain pallet....
Turning it on end, attaching boards to hold dirt, painting it and hanging it on the side of our yard barn.....
and letting the lady pick out flowers to go in the pallet planter.
But we weren't the only ones who enjoyed our new pallet planter. The next day after placment of the flowers, a bird was building a nest behind one of the flowers....
And now we have a clutch of 5 bird eggs in our pallet planter bird nest.....
With 4 cement blocks we had available I took another pallet and made a quick work table for our potting area, and it works well for keeping plants up where the bunnies can't get to them.
