    And I wonder if they moved the snow aside to drill the holes? This is Maine...right?

    It is in Maine we have not had that much snow this year. Last year I would not have seen them until summer.

    They look a little like C-3PO!
    Certainly the instructions are clear, but no one read the manual, including the inspector!--NBC
