Sometimes I was bored BEFORE I retired but frankly never afterward. So much more you can do when you give up the 8 to 5 routine!

I know of one vegetable garden here in TV.

Even up north bird feeders could draw rats. In our tiny borough in Pittsburgh, I was looking at these cute but large chipmunks out at the bird feeder. What cute ears! Boy are they big chipmunks. My husband took the binoculars and recognized them as rats.

We called the borough health department and said We have rats in our backyard, and they very snootily replied, "There are no rats in Churchill! Those are "****s" (a name I can't remember, which apparently is something you call rats when you don't want to admit you have rats). Nevertheless, they were out the next day with "****" poison and advised us to take down the bird feeder.

So we don't feed anything in TV, but I miss doing that.
