I'm going to use the "Homesteading" tag here, even though the new project is not at this time being considered as a residence.
We had an opportunity to buy some land. Not much on it but a garage, but there is an electrical hook up. Other than that it is just....there. A place for the younger generations to have adventures, and for the Hunter Gatherer demographic to, well, hunt and gather stuff. Also of course a place where endless keep busy tasks will be available. Hey, retirement demands things to do.
So, lets boil some maple syrup.
Let's explore some of the numerous deer stands that come with the place.
There are lots of blackberry bushes. Some members of the tribe are hoping for edible mushrooms, although the few fungi we saw this early looked like tough, probably toxic stuff.
Hank the dog is not used to being off leash. His opportunity to romp, roll, sniff and lift his leg freely was probably the happiest day of his life. And the next time we make it back up it will be again. Dogs are blessed. They remember very little. Sorrows, such as they experience, leave no mark. And every time that the sun is shining and they find something stinky it is their Best Day Ever.
Naturally the trail cams have already been deployed.
