We have made new friends this summer. The raccoons that lurk in the block to the west of us have adopted out pond for their nightly watering and ablutions. They seem to leave the cats alone, which we appreciate. The other night I was on the phone with Ed - lounging on my chair in the front yard - when they paraded up the stairs and calmly into the back yard. I managed to get this picture of one of htem. So now we hae bats flying above and raccoons in the water!
These are the stairs that we have lived with for the last 19 years - the big chunk broke off the bottom step just before winter 2008. You can't really see all of the cracks and holes and all, but believe me - they were there!
These are out pretty new stairs now. We didn't get them totally replaced - but a gentleman did come in and repair the problem spots and recoat all of them. They are so pretty - and smooth and nice on your feet. And now we don't have to worry about anyone stumbling on the chunk of concrete. Come see our pretty stairs some time!

Ooooh! The stairs look VERY pretty! We will come see them in December, hopefully you won't have to shovel them off for us!
