Potty HouseSome Housing

Stinks!

While checking on a housing project I spotted this beautiful Blue Jay resting on a porta potty on site.

I could easily make this a post about the "flood smell" that I never knew about until Minot's devastating flood of 2011 being so many are learning learning about it first hand now from the recent floods due to hurricanes.

I could make this post about pet odors as every Realtor I know can share a story of how a house was only worth a fraction of it's potential value due to carpets and walls saturated with pet urine (and owners thinking nothing of it... except "I'll give a $50.00 carpet allowance).

I could post about those things but I just wanted to say what a joy it was to capture this Blue Jay on my phone as he gave me plenty of opportunity to take his picture. I just wish I would have had my camera along instead of just my phone.

Hi Bob, 

Great catch. I don't know how many times I have got the phone or camera out and watched the bird fly away....especially skittish Cardinals.

I'll have to check it out Nina Hollander but I hate that I remind you of another man... it should be the other way around .

I've heard that before Belinda Spillman , I'll have to read up on it and see why they have that reputation.

Good morning Bob.

The old saying comes to mind.  What one man considers trash is another mans treasure, or something like that

Me too Debbie Reynolds . I need to get a new camera as I'm having trouble getting mine to focus and it's been to the shop many times without positive results.
