I know how you and hunting are. I was so glad to see that you will spare him. Maybe you should consider hunting away from your property!? Now that was a job well done. The cement base looks great. You four were a hard working crew. Glad you had some time for fun in between:) Enjoy ND!John and Pam (ohtheplacestheygo.wordpress.com)https://www.blogger.com/profile/10853924678665624403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-82618797339149088.post-86148888625588649442018-09-26T04:41:45.136-07:002018-09-26T04:41:45.136-07:00We were not looking forward to it ourselves but no...We were not looking forward to it ourselves but now that it is done, it was not bad at all!Jim and Barb's Adventureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13552315333349717925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-82618797339149088.post-91133143348089673582018-09-26T03:35:33.721-07:002018-09-26T03:35:33.721-07:00You guys sure picked an awesome area to have your ...You guys sure picked an awesome area to have your little piece of paradise with so much to see and do around there.

Anticipation waiting for the truck, the shear dread when it arrives and starts dumping, the agony of wanting to take a break mid-pour and you know you can't, the very slight decline in adrenaline when the pouring is done and the truck is gone, and finally the satisfaction of seeing the result of all that hard work. Well done you guys!!Dave McMechanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01321482378390568366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-82618797339149088.post-18912053497606179702018-09-25T16:09:55.722-07:002018-09-25T16:09:55.722-07:00So nice to see the progress!

We've been in the low 20s at night this past week. Cold, but with the fleece sheets, we don't even notice. Once we leave Redfish Lake (ID) It'll get back into the 40s at night and, yay, 70s in the day!

Hopefully this week so we will be able to use our driveway sometime soon. This morning as I sit here at 7:40am the saws are running taking the last of the sundeck down as they have the gazebo supported with scafflolding. Can't wait to be able to get outside onto our sundeck. Freya certainly has not been impressed with being mostly housebound! Our new dock should be floated down the lake to us this morning. Stay warm going north. :)Deb Kylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07239470933976567946noreply@blogger.com
