A Gear Shift of Epic Proportions

Ah, poor me!  Once again, my plans are waylaid by issues.  New wheeze:  the FIRST building on the site built by me will be...wait for it...a 12x10 guest house with a 10x10 deck.  Conventional post/beam on concrete pier footers.

Ergo, the pix attached show the footers dug this day by moi.

Also, a large cache of free wood from Craigslist is welcomed!  It's on the site, too.

My xmas gifts included almost $200 worth of gift cards to the big box DIY stores, so that helps tremendously.

More as we see the day approaching,






p.s. The pic of the open pathway is a clearing for a future disc golf hole!  Barry gets naming rights!

Chubs Scout Disc Golf Course



After a round of disc golf at Cedars of Lebanon in Wilson County, Jer, Bear, Bk and I trekked far south of there and scouted the land Saturday for possible disc golf course basket placements. The photos here are from the top border of the land looking south towards town. We'd only just finished a wonderful lunch of catfish and huge as your head hamburgers plus scrumptious desserts at the Local Store.

Anyhoo, Jeremy proffered that we should set out only 5 or so baskets and have different tee pads to reach them. That way, we could minimize the damage to the woods, keep the costs low, and possibly get in more actual 'holes' than we would if we did 1 tee/1 basket.

Bear reiterated that we needed to have the holes go laterally across the hill rather than up and down. After the heavy lunch we had, we all concurred.

Great ideas; that's why I like having these guys near.

The Pictures Are:
1.) Barry thinks our ideas are SO bright, he's gotta wear shades
2.) BK takes a blurry pic of the view from the top of our property line
3.) Jer surveys a possible basket site
