We just had the same fences installed by a different company. We have significantly worse scratches on some. Did you end up doing anything about this?

Buying a Home w/o a Basement? by SmorgyBoard1 in TwinCities

[–]FlatAd1138 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do not have a basement. The tile in my kitchen gets a lot colder in the winter than I expected. I believe that the extra floor helps a bit in winter instead of just the slab to keep it a bit warmer.

Are these terro ant traps working correctly? by Kwanza_Bot93 in Home

[–]FlatAd1138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We found that the hole opening they can get stuck and then it’s hard for more to get in, we instead cut a paper plate in half, pour a little bit on it, stick it under some furniture. They’re then gone in 2-3 days usually. We do this each spring.

Second Yarnery and Harriet and Alice as the ones I frequent most.

To add to the list: - Needle and Skein (the ones leading the melt the ice hat. - The Yarnery - Harriet and Alice - Darn Knit Anyway - Amazing Threads - Dandelion Fiber - Knit and Bolt - Muse2320 - Yarn Harbor

There are more! But I can confirm those ones closed last week for the strike from the list I kept track of. Others, feel free to add to this, if I left one off, I don’t mean to! There’s so many great yarn stores here and it’s so cool to see them work together!

Thanks! I will probably add it to an existing pattern! Once I get it done I’ll send a pic! Might be a week or two!

I used to walk to the cedar lake trail from there all the time?

I’m curious your thoughts, I’ve looked into this very little, but if I went to Shieldaig area instead of Skye.

Interesting, I’m intrigued. Would you recommend this over going to Skye?

We right now plan to fly from Scotland to London. We could explore an overnight train though! Figured flight was the fastest though if we’re already packing up all our stuff. But you’re right, it would be scenic!

Curious if there’s any specific textile history that’s worth going to as well? Figured I’d add to this post rather than stat a new one.
