    Deck advice for guy

    Thanks. It faces southeast - so that corner warms up quickly until early afternoon then shade would kick in. Ideal in a way. Cool in the evenings and afternoons in that corner. I live north of Fargo - not in city limits. It's a poured basement (Camrud Foss) and has only a few hairline cracks -...

    Anybody who lives with crows in their area will recognize a raven quickly. The size alone is rather stark to an outdoorsman.
