Skunk update
Whew last night Daddy skunk and now Momma this a.m.
My dogs, Kismet and Cookie, startled me awake with the sound of something (or someone) tearing apart the side or back of my coach. Of course, they sounded off (like good dogs do), and I'm hoping that my neighbors appreciate their vigilance. It 'is' only 4 o'clock
After Kismet getting a full blast of DADDY skunk aroma in the face the previous night..... this time I thought I was being clever and opened my back door (after turning on the lights). To my surprise, here is MOMMA trying to dig down somewhere around my back steps, on the porch, under or whereever.... she was in a panic.
Then I heard why, at least one baby was crying for her from a nest or something caught underneath my home. Didya know they sound just like puppies in distress? The baby(ies) were soo close I thought maybe I could move something heavy away so she could get to it. But, momma did not appreciate or understand my efforts.......... not only did she spray me directly but also filled my whole area with her aroma while she sat a short way from her babies in distress. If I turned the light off and on again, she would move a foot or two then spray again.
Well now for the second night, myself and my dogs are pretty sick from the pew. And, I am spending a second night bathing, trying to get this stuff off. Luckily Kismet could get a haircut which helped immensely. But, I refuse to shave my head......... well maybe, it could be a fashion statement? Grey Panther Ms. Clean? LMAO Just don't laugh very loud if you see me in lots of hats.
I'm sorry to my neighbors Sandy and Sandy, I know this had to be pretty bad for you too. And, to MOMMA, I did try. I plan to go out in the a.m. when it is light and check out that side of my home again (hopefully momma will have gone off somewhere).

More construction was needed on the web site, check it out!
Well, it does look like more work is needed. I'm sorry for disturbing ya'all with my error but, am so grateful to those of you who took the time to let me know about the problem. I am learning how to post a workable link to our Park's Newsletter. Hmmm maybe attaching it would work better than a link?.
As well I am still working on how to operate my new Nikon digital camera (so that I can post pix to accompany the sales listings on the internet) A picture is worth a thousand words, don't you agree?
Wow! this camera is nothing like the old Brownie box one is it? lol

March comes in like a lion...
This is certianly proving to be true. Wow, more rain last night. I set my seedlings and cuttings out for the healthy showers that the heavens provide. Everything looks and smells so clean and fresh.
All of this rain brings to my mind the summer rains in So Florida. A sign I was taught to look for was look at the trees and see the leaves actually turn silvery as they look up awaiting the pending showers.

Rain, Rain Go Away
Wow! has it been raining. Our Park is getting ready to bloom all over.When this happens, the beauty and fragance is spectacular. Not just at our homes but in the Community Garden up on the hillside.
One of our homes near the swimming pool was recently painted as a beach shack with the weathered look ..... white with blue trim. Something you might see in FL or another beach town. This particular coach has such gorgeous flower baskets all over the front and on her porch.
When you come out to Sherman Grove Park, see if you can pick this one out.

So much happened today
Tonight the winds howled and the rain blew. My new deck was saturated, not quite Noah and The Flood, but pretty close. After a bit of mopping late into the night, I finally got a clue and put out my seedlings and newbie growth plants for the heaven sent rain.... a totally symbiotic relationship. Don't ya love working with nature? It is amazing how much gets thought out as we care for something else.
Our Santa Fe cozy is already being considered for purchase as I post. If this offering goes thru, sorry no pix for you this time. It does look like a match has been made (but you know how love matches go, check back in two weeks and see if they are still on their honeymoon). I raised her skirt and they saw her ankle and got soooo excited. This Santa Fe cozy is a coach luring you in, with its lace curtains, veranda, and all the trimmings.
I will follow this cozy cottage to its final sale...... this will be fun.

Oh Oh Oh, guess what I just learned
Somehow I understood that this blog and website were more for an intranet (INTRA, not INTER) system which limited us to locals that we chose to share and converse with. BUT, NO, NO, NO My kids tweaked somethings and we are on 'the' internet. We are going WORLD WIDE. Just think about the possibilities! We could actually continue to share our different cultures.... Sherman Grove MHP is like a microcosm of the Los Angeles area and we look forward to meeting more newbies (internet lingo) and mixing it up with you.
Do not be surprised if your home for sale is discussed on your facebook wall with friends or tweeted with numerous followers. Lots of lots of inquiries regarding a senior panther who wants to live in Sunland, SoCal in our Senior Park... Sherman Grove Mobile Home Park.
I must say I'm sure excited.
Will keep you posted as we advance forward.

You will not believe what I saw
I looked at an absolutely adorable 2 bd 2 bath home today. What a great setup for a romantic couple.... ok ok, I admit it, I'm having a Valentine's Day hangover.
But this one is set up with two full bathrooms one off each bedroom, so if you get made at each other you can avoid each other (but let's hope your relationship is one that makes up before you go to bed?).
Anyway, the owner is making it ready to sell as I post.......... I'll keep you updated.
So how was your day?

Doing an all nighter
This reminds me when I needed to cram for exams the next day lol
I am up late tonight so I can work on my blog and website. I am so excited that I will be able to offer new listings up on the internet. Besides, after my son did alot of the preliminary work (from Tucson, AZ no less!), my joy is filling in our history, amenities and listings here. Now I believe I will change the format.... see I'm getting it!!
