I guess the woodsman started cutting last week, I need to run out there and check how it's coming this afternoon, I walked out there with him last week and laid out where to get started

Are you going to need stumps pulled out for your cabin site? I've always wondered how that works -- I hear that is the expensive part.

so haven't had much going on this, with all the rain the woodcutter hasn't really been able to get much done, he almost has the cabin spot cleared though so I went with a friend to look at putting in the driveway and a 30x30 gravel pad, the quote I got back was 3000 dollars, seems reasonable to me, so hopefully we can get started on that in the next week or so

I was out back 4-wheeling with my boys the other night and met up with our “Gent” friend. He was in his gravel pit and had just found a beautiful vein of clean coarse gravel perfect for your plans. I am looking forward to seeing this project take shape.
