Enter Fall!

Completing the deck with a couple of coats of penefin.

This ramp leads to the smoking/fire pit/parking. We are working on a plan for making good use of this area. Hopefully, revealed next summer. As we discussed this walkway, Mickey made an elaborate plan for it that included steps and lots of work. He was relieved when I suggested a simple ramp. Whew, this was so much easier!

These are the steps from the lower parking and the garage under the deck.

A little deck, then steps on to the upper level.

Yes, that is an iPhone on the lower step.

Lots of firewood is a necessity for winter here. 

Loading the trees onto our trailer.

Blocking.

Splitting. Now, it is all stacked and ready.

Watching the colors...

Ahhh... My favorite time of year.

Our son and his family arrived for a visit. Morning coffe with PawPaw is still a tradition.

 Measuring is just part of a visit to the cabin.

Brock is smokin' hot after a trip to the hot tub!

Working on the trail.

Riding the trail.

The trail is challenging.

It sometimes requires stopping for more rock moving.

Then, off again.

The zip line has been rerouted.

It is still fun!

And, then the paint ball fun.

Even the spectators have a good time!

This visit was a fun Columbus Day treat.

Our last group for the season arrived the next weekend.

See you in the Spring!
