Oh my. There is another story right there. Gotta find the camp fire thread.
A LATE NIGHT campfire story for that matter...
Oh my. There is another story right there. Gotta find the camp fire thread.
Thanks to all for the good wishes!
I'd peg myself at about 60% of normal. I still have to grab a tree on the way up and down my hills. BUT! I'm getting up and down those hills! Actually, it's good therapy.
I managed to still get shit done around my cabin! I'll attach pics. I have a hollow below my cabin that is a venison-tura freeway for game. But it's too steep for me to get down there with my tractor and brush-hog. Shit! It was rife with 7' tall weeds that I couldn't whack down in my condition. So, I still had a gang of fruit trees to plant, what to do?
I took the only thing that would get down there, my 4 wheeler, and chained a giant oak pallet behind it with some cinder blocks on top, and mowed the whole place down! Jesus, Mary, and Joseph! It was creepy! It was creepy because I became on a first name basis of every giant orb web spinning spider in the world! Face first with giant creepy spiders on my head, chest, neck, legs...
After loosing my voice screaming like a girl, I got it done. Not done, but done enough to plant my trees.
I even had the physical gas left to carve down all the trees to let me get my brush hog down there. That will wait for another day... I still have a lot of saw work to clean it up. All the trees I'm leaving standing are Black Walnuts. Good for the critters and valuable timber.
It's deer season. I'm not that anxious to kill something, unless its a huge buck. I killed the Farles out of them, Charles, last year, so I still have a bunch in the freezer.
Saturday nite, we closed down the local pimple of a local bar. It was epic! Got to love the locals in Butt-Jam Egypt! Very colorful! I almost broke a vein in my bean that night from laughing! Got back to the cabin at 3. Ooooo...Had the "big head" thing going on the next morning....
Here are some pics from my hard-won new food plot and fruit trees. It shows what I did and the spots I had to deal with and still have to carve out from mother nature. Yeah, boring to most, but to me it's a canvas and I have my paint brush loaded with new trees and fresh terrain!View attachment 18140View attachment 18141View attachment 18142View attachment 18143View attachment 18144View attachment 18145View attachment 18146View attachment 18147View attachment 18148View attachment 18140View attachment 18140View attachment 18140
