They have a Pioneer 1000 on Oak Island tonight for the first time.
Maybe that’s the treasure

I did indeed, took the weekend off of that dozer, resting the neck and back.

Took some time to poke around the property and found this neat little area.

Is that a hog scald pit? We have an area that has several pits like that and it's called Hog Scald Holler, supposedly built a big fire and used RR iron to transfer heat the the pits?

No, it’s in rock.

I rented an 1870 adobe casita in town for a year while I’m building out there on the property. Having a fire and a glass of wine. Ponderosa pine is the prevalent wood here. Crackles a lot and smells good, piñon pine too.

Back on the dozer tomorrow, two days left to work the road before the garage is delivered!! Woot woot.

I have two ponderosa pine by my camp that are so big my arms won’t fit have way around. They are by a stream, so can’t be taken by machine. No branches for over 100’

I left tracks walking across the back porch because of the pollen this morning. LOL. No snow only got a trace all year.

Oh, and I love a good thunderstorm. My parents house overlooked the basin, eight kids I’m my house. 7 boys 1 girl. We had a covered sun porch. We would sleep in the porch when a thunderstorm was going to happen. Still love it today.
You guys probably get nervous because of tornadoes though. We don’t get tornadoes. That’s one good thing for the cold.

Wow. Flat. Looks like Alberta.
The little bit of snow was perfect for hunting. You were probably happy to have it. Get them moving.
It probably wasn’t-25 like it was when I was sitting in my blind in Alberta. Haha. He has to be bigger than the last one before I pull the trigger in. -25. Two years ago I got a beautiful 12 point. Over 240 lbs. So last year I didn’t shoot anything. Too cold . Haha
Did you get yours.

This is two fours or eights, depending on how you count them. Here is 8. , west is 4.
Too small. I called them in with a grunt call. Probably 50 yards. Haha
