Pansy Rehab

I came home to find clumps of pansies on the porch and potting soil all over the place from squirrels digging in the flower pots...again. I've tried keeping them out of the pots using wooden bbq skewers and covering the soil with stones. Neither method is effective against determined squirrels. I repotted the traumatized pansies, and I'm trying a squirrel proofing method recommended by a friend. I covered the soil between the flowers with fine vinyl netting. Apparently, squirrels don't like getting their paws caught up in the netting. We'll see...
Three Good Things:
1. The sun came out for a few hours today
2. A long walk through the park and neighborhood
3. An amazing new razor-sharp zester/grater
