10 days off work to WORK

Cracker... whew... I read your post and had to go lay down after reading it. Sounds like some of my "vacations". Your place looks beautiful, and work looks well done. That's a lot of stone to be throwing down. Sounds like you are getting fired up for hunting season. On the weekends, my wife and I like to sit at our small breakfast table and watch birds, etc out our bay window...while throwing down the java. Our house sits on a wooded hillside, so we are used to seeing all manner of critters. I must say, that my heart rate shot up the other day as we sat there and watched 3 bucks walk across our front yard. The 2 in front were 8 pointers, and the one in the rear was 10. All in velvet. We've seen the 10 pointer several times...as he seems to be bedding down somewhere close to our house. The neighbor lady (who hunts), and I like to swap deer sighting stories. This same deer likes to walk across her front yard too. Come deer season, the wiley critters will not be seen or heard from....probably bedded down right next to my house, laughing as he sees me come and go with my smoke pole. Enjoy your place and the great outdoors.

My place is off 60 south out of Morganton. Old Dial Rd. to Pedina Rd. & Antioch Cemetary Rd. My place has Atioch Cemetary Rd. On the north and Pedena Rd. On the SE Corner. The rest of the boundries are US Forest Service

That's puts us on the south side of the Star Creek branch of Lake Blue Ridge. (No water access, USFS between us and the lake)

Does that help....

Thanks,

And your right about the deer. They really make the place peaceful. We also have some 15-20 turkeys that stay on the property and they are a lot of fun to watch. I put out game cameras and get all kinds of pictures of deer and turkey. Last month I got a doe bringing her spotted fawn to the feeder. The month before I got a black bear sow and her two cubs.....

Very cool....

Thanks, but I still looking forward to the day I can sit on the porch and sip Hot Apple Cidar.

Right now I'll have to settle for sitting in the tractor Seat chugging Gator Aid to avoid heat stroke.
