The Mice Have Moved!

Land clearing and house building


Before and after photos of Driveway

Tearing down an old retaining wall.  It was built for a Hydroponic Greenhouse that was removed in the 1980s. 

   

I built the house in a Loblolly pine plantation. 

Having fun at the end of a day of work

I cut 13 tractor trailer loads of pine out of the woods

The House site.  I logged all of the trees with the farm tractor and then hired to have the sumps removed

Laying the last blocks for the foundation

Pealing off the Bark to use as siding on a shed.
The poplar logs were used in the house as beams and for fire wood.

Moving the hat shed over to the land to use as my office while building
 

Here is the bark that I finally installed as siding on my storage shed. It took three days to put up what you see here.  Talk about slow work.

Fleece scraps insulate the shed ceiling!
