Headed Back to Canada...

Loaded up

& ready to hit the road in the morning.

...But the Nature of my Trip shall remain a Mystery ;-)

Good Morn.. uh, I mean, Afternoon !!

A few more days, and I'm headed back home.

I've been keeping an eye on things from a distance...

Everything is fine, but the house does look lonely.

After I get back home and settled in, I gotta hit the ground

running again. Winter is just around the corner.

Yippee!... Not :/

That does mean, a few things on the to do list have to be taken care of asap. For one, I need a back porch. I'll be honest though, as far as moving stuff in, boob height access has made things a little simpler. No steps to climb, just a willing helper on the inside grabbing things. I would like better access over the snowy months though. I won't fret over it if I don't have time to complete it before the white stuff comes in, but I'll give it a shot.

All I need back there is 4' x 4' with the steps going along the house. Someone with experience would have it done in a few hours I'm sure. I'll have to give myself a few days with my limited experience. I did build the front porch all by myself ~ grin. And I think it turned out pretty good. I still have to board up the sides to hide the framing, but that can wait. Here's a night time glimpse of it...

 

Not bad for a first attempt, eh ;-)

Mother Nature works in Mysterious Ways,

or should I say:

You just might get it.

Not mine... "yet" ;-)

Good Morning...

~ Still enjoying my time away ~

Yes, there is a beach here, but no palm trees...

~ Happy Canadian Thanksgiving ~

How 'bout leftovers ?

~ Sweet Dreams ~

~ Inhale ~

How 'bout a dozen?

Still Waiting....

Where the fuck you at?

Just Chillin'

Somewhere in Canada

Take Flight

Jack brought up the story I wrote a few years ago, about flying with my father in his plane. I had to read it again.

That "moment in time" is definitely one of my favorite. 

My Dad's Plane (one of 'em)

This is the picture I have on my sidebar, so it's not very clear.

I have more at home I could post, but since I'm not there for a while,

I had to settle for this one ;-)

Hey Tony, Should I Feed This Guy? ;)

I took this picture back in June, a few days after starting excavation with my backhoe guy. There were a lot of deer tracks too, but this guy was the biggest critter to visit that night. I set up a trail cam after that, no luck yet. I'll be sure to share when I do get a few good pics out of it.

And yes, that's my big ol' steel toe rubber boot you see there.

...My Woodlot Slippers ;-) 

~ Teamwork ~

Way to stand by your man <3

That's How it's Done.

Wednesday Weirdness

Time for another Pic Dump !

Good Morning

I Spy ~ MissK's Homestead

~ View from the Backwoods ~

You guys gotta know I wouldn't give it all away at once.

Where's the fun in that... ;-)

I can actually see all 4 of my buildings in this pic :P

Workshop, House, Storage Shed, and the infamous Still Shack.

A little history & links below, if you're interested.

Someone once told me : "On se fait le cadeau d'une vie"

...loosely translated: "Give yourself the Gift of Life"

 It kinda stuck with me, and helped me push through a very difficult chapter, helping me realize what I did want out of life. I'm in a better place now, and feel I need to dot a few i's were the blog is concerned.

I kinda put My World on the backburner lately,

all the while knowing I couldn't stay away

for too long.

Good Morning :)

Any day now...
