We didn’t end up doing anything on the property when we were up over the weekend. By the time we got the truck unloaded and returned we were tired and not ready to try to start in on any futher projects. We stopped at the grocery store, bought some beer and chips, then headed out to the property to hang out for a bit. It was really nice, although a little strange, to just be there looking around and not really doing anything in particular! The weather was beautiful – mid-70’s with a nice mild breeze. The birds were singing, the air smelled wonderful and it was an absolutely lovely day. So, without further ado, here’s some pictures.

First off, I actually got to drive onto the property for the first time! Here’s our car, parked on our parking pad.  (And yes, that’s Gregory sliding down the slope to the house site.  He made it too!)

Here’s the pile of oaks just below the house site. If you compare this to previous pictures, you’ll notice that Matt has made a big dent in this pile.

And here’s the biggest stack of firewood… although there are several more smaller ones here and there too. Good thing we are heating with a wood stove!

Ah, isn’t it pretty?
