Here Comes The Rain

Since doing a little land clearing not so long ago, life has pretty much slowed down on the property.  We've enjoyed meeting with some designers and builders to get ideas for a home, but as of now, I think we're going to slow things down a bit.  We're still anxious to get out on the property but want to do it without throwing caution to the wind.

Meanwhile, we've been given a picnic table as a gift and have been spending some time on the weekends putting it together.  Jenn's been staining it and prepping it for outdoor use so it will not only look good, it will hopefully last.

This past weekend brought several inches of much needed rain.  Note to self, install a rain gauge...oh, and call that guy about laying some new road-base.


The ruts you see here were from my father-in-law's truck earlier Sunday morning.  It had been raining non-stop for 24 hours.  Here I've just opened the gate to go in. 

I had to get a running start and though we made it, I think I widened the road just inside the gate by a few feet.  Yeah, I was grinning the whole time but nervous about having to call someone to come pull us out.

Good Times!
