Creek friendly home improvement and yard care
The days are long and warm, but many of us are anything but lazy. We are in our yards tackling our outdoor honey-do lists. We are refinishing our decks, painting our homes and taming our yards.

In the movie “The Terminal”, Tom Hanks portrays a man stuck in an airport for nine months due to a bureaucratic snafu. He can’t speak English and is left to fend for himself in the international terminal of New York Airport. As the story unfolds, he learns English, makes friends, and finds ways to get food, money and a home for himself. At times he has only saltine crackers and ketchup to eat. He accepts his situation with a positive attitude.
