home staging in crosslake: Don't Shoot Radio-collared Bears. Please!
- 08/29/07 03:23 AM
The Minnesota DNR is asking that bear hunters leave the radio-collared bears alone. The DNR monitors about 40 bears by this method according to DNR bear research biologist Dave Garshelis. Most are in the area of the Chippewa National Forest, my area which is the Camp Ripley Military Reservation and near Voyageurs National Park. However the bears may travel 50 or more miles from their territory, during the fall season.

home staging in crosslake: Confessions of a Dumpster Diver
- 06/11/07 07:45 AM
OK - so now you know- I love cast offs, the abandoned & forlorn objects of other people's wrath. A ding, a nick - that is nothing to me. Replace a table top - sure in fact, I have 4 legs that need a top - presto, table. This talent (obsession) started when I was but a wee lass. My father was a very talented inventor and re-purposer. Almost everything would "Come in handy " someday and a lot of things did. I rescued an old wooden bench from our local dump along with two puppies that I found homes for. … (17 comments)
