Moving the new tiny house to-be into place 
Last month we stripped the components from this electric car,
now the chassis is loaded and ready for the scrap yard.


Problems & Solutions

Rats.
Until other solutions are found/deployed, we have been using snap traps to catch and kill the rats and mice, freezing them, then giving them to the Santa Cruz Native Animal Rescue

The rats/mice chewed the wires in our water heater
It was cold showers for the Coyote crew for a couple weeks!

Some of the critters who eat the rats/mice...

Baby Red Tailed Halk

Baby Fox will eat them someday!



Pygmy burrowing owl

That's all for now!
