So scenic... can’t wait for the return trip! Louder and a bit more fragrant I’m sure, but new pretty girls to see soon...

I I have them. We're all a bit warm but heading back to the barge now. I have 7. Too sad but they had another Campine so she's coming home with us too.

I must say it's nice to have you back on~line more frequently @Kris5902

I agree! It's always good to hear from you @Kris5902 . I often wonder how you are managing.

That forest was gorgeous by the way. Will the trees that fell on the property this season be chopped up for next years firewood?

Going to have an update on it over on my thread very soon, first floor decking is done, came home yesterday to FIL and BIL attempting to move wall panels with the tractor. After our firewood trip, DH was so frustrated by the small amount of wood the we absolutely had to take the truck up the mountain to get he picked up beer, which was very good considering the how not to use a tractor mess we came back to.

I really don’t know how long it will take us to get the walls up. I’m hoping FIL goes on vacation to Cuba for a long time very soon, and we can maybe arrange a work bee/“please help us be not homeless next winter” party for erecting the walls in his absence. Waterproofing stuff (tar?) for the foundations is coming home with DH today I think. I don’t think the RV is going to make it through another winter. The situation is complicated by most people here refusing to work with FIL and very nearly us over some of BIL’s recent misdoings. DH and I are trying to distance ourselves from being associated with the rest of his family. Some people in the community are gradually warming up to us again. Freaking Family Drama makes me want to become a hermit!

It does seem like the plot of a "Carry on" or "Three Stooges" film.

Well, on the up side, If you ever decide to write your "farm adventures " memoirs Kris they will not be dull!

If FIL goes to Cuba, you can get the neighbours over for a "barn raising" for your walls. It must feel so near and yet so far...
