The snow is melting with the warmer temps-almost 60 today. This is leading to muddy patches in the yard-so I collected wood compost from around the cedar tree. Evidently limbs and such have been piled around the evergreen for years and rotting away to a nice compost. I spread this on areas of mud where I or Petra frequent.

I made another door/hatch in the fence, at the rear this time, so Petra can have a look see at the activity in the alley. I put a bamboo bar down the middle so she can't really get her whole head out- and frighten the locals.

I mixed thee different  cans of paint together to come up with a good amount of a green semi-gloss I could use for the bathroom walls. Being a warm day, I finished the quick patch job on the bathroom walls and painted them. It's a quick job to satisfy till I can give the wall patching more attention- another year. The color turned out great and the change in the bathroom is grand.

Oh, and I payed fetch/catch with Petra:

it's hard to get a good pic, but her back feet are off the ground
