The Trees are Down!

Dad and I started about 10:30 this morning moving around underbrush and trees. Kev joined once he finished working.




The driveway will come up where the tractor is standing. 
Pushing the underbrush and small limbs into one of the monstrous burn piles.
The house will sit right about here on the top of the ridge.
Monstrous burn pile #1. I told Kev we needed to wait for another chilly night and take the camping chairs over there and have a few drinks around the bonfire. Yes, I have a little bit of country girl in me.
Firewood!
A pile of Hickory for a friend. 

All I can say is that I am EXHAUSTED! Basically dad cut up the trees and I loaded them into the back of the truck, drove them to the firewood pile, and unloaded them. Anytime that I was left waiting was used to drag limbs and brush to the burn pile. I have a feeling I will be sore tomorrow. I made it out with only two bruises and I'm really hoping I don't get Poison Ivy. There were vines growing up a few of the trees. I tried to be careful and dad was making sure he pulled off what he could.

Football Merchandise

It's football season and Walmart has all their Razorback merchandise out. I was browsing the aisle the other day and saw these. I immediately thought whiskey! A great way to sneak liquor into the stadium. Of course the back says intended for water only. Yeah right! No one looks at this and says water.

And a Roof

They finished the roof up today! Back of the house. Front of the house. They use these to hold the plywood together.

Our Kitchen

My favorite room in the whole house!! We still need to put the cabinet pulls on the cabinets. I have them picked out, I think dad has ordered them. We also still have to trim out the appliance garage, microwave, and fridge. The trim pieces are in the garage. I absolutely love being able to cook while watching TV and the open space for entertaining.  There is so much storage! I can finally buy in bulk or buy two of something when it is on sale. I literally had one cabinet for food storage in the rent house. Everything was neatly crammed in there. Now I can actually get something without taking everything out.
