Our Thoughts for May
—————————————–
Traffic to the site more than doubled in May and we welcomed 27 new members! With the spring weather we saw the addition of many outdoor gardening and renovation projects. Check out our favorites, onfyr’s Play Structure for Kids and Backyard Landscaping by coyote. In May, we also conducted a user feedback session which resulted in the creation of the ‘New in the Roost’ box. Central Roost visitors can now use these links to quickly find the latest discussion board posts, homes and projects. As summer approaches we look forward to seeing more of your renovation and gardening projects!
