Welcome to Clearwater! We have wi-fi! Cell phones Spotty reception in general. Verizon service is best. Clearest reception is nearer the road. Texts usually work better than voice calls. Activities Basketball, ping-pong, bikes in the shed by the basketball hoop, croquet, badminton. Bicycle pump is in the ping-pong room. (Note – due to mole activity and elk traipsing through the yard during rainy times, the lawn is uneven, so watch your step.) Flowers You’re welcome to cut a few flowers. Vases are in the cupboard. Watering in summer Since we are only here every 2-3 weeks, the gardens and flower pots sometimes get rather dry. Please help us out by watering plants when they look thirsty. Firewood We work hard to provide firewood for the guesthouse and ourselves. Please use it sensibly in the wood stove and the firepit. Garbage/Recycling/Compost There are 2 garbage cans for guest use. These are collected every 2 weeks (schedule is posted on the wall by the cans). If you are staying here when the garbage truck is due, please take the cans to the road before noon (we thank you!). There is NO RECYCLING available through our garbage service, but a neighbor boy is collecting aluminum cans. Please crush these (can crushers is on the side of the house by the garbage cans) and put them in the labeled can. If you feel strongly about recycling and don’t want to put recyclables in the garbage, please take these items home with you. A compost bin is located to the left of the yard light. Please put only vegetable matter in it – no meat scraps. Problems? Questions? Our home phone is 253.759.8738, email is joecwnovak@gmail.com.
