This was kind of my best kept secret, but I’m sharing it with you now that I’m absolutely tapped out on wall space for tornado-debris crosses and as for more tornado-debris birdhouses? Let’s just say that I won’t need to do any mowing this summer. Because my yard is an avian housing development, just row after row of birdhouse on birdhouse on birdhouse making an inspirational statement that says if my yard, in a totally different state, can come back bigger and tackier then so can you, Joplin. So can you.
