I managed to do a hoce start to finish after work. It still needs floor insulation, and they all need birdy carpet, but it’s done; badly cupped, knotty board or not. Beautiful, nope, but I did okay with the skilsaw, which saved me setup time, and it doesn’t have to be beautiful to keep my little birds warm and dry.

That’s four blurd hoces. Three for me, one for P. I think I’ll have enough board scraps left to make a horizontal house for the Carolina wrens that keep trying to find shelter in the vent up by the garage roof, too.

On the left, much-despised crapgrass that I missed when I was pulling it up. On the right, a microscopic grass from the seed I threw down last week when I planted the croci.
