Cedar Watermelon

Emerson found this wedge we cut out of a cedar and picked it up.

He then said it looks like watermelon but when he took a bite he said "too hard". 

We're waiting for the Lorax to show up

Everyone needs a Thneed!

We needed a sawbuck

I built a sawbuck out of a couple of pallets the other day and got to try it out yesterday. It’s a great inexpensive tool that’s well needed when cutting down trees. It makes the task at hand must safer.

Not only are we clearing alone the creek beds but we also need to clear about 100’ behind the house so we’ll have room for the animal pens, the laundry room, and clothes line.

It seems easy but boy do I feel it comes time to go to bed. 

I ain’t 25 no more.
