Guest guest Posted September 14, 2000 Report Share Posted September 14, 2000 Hello everyone, Thanks to all who wrote in response to "A Place". "A Place" update: Donnie Botkin is coming this week to level the ground. Jerry Varner is cutting six 12 foot and three 18 foot yellow locust poles for the structural supports sometime this week. Chuck Neeley, the portable saw mill, guy was here last night and we figured out we'll need around 3,400 board feet of lumber for the constuction. He will be here in about two weeks to fell the trees and saw up the lumber. He uses a Belgian draft horse for pulling the logs from the forest to the saw mill. Steve Varner should be here shortly with his tractor and auger to make three foot deep foundation holes for erecting the yellow locust poles. The lumber will be stacked, chinked for air circulation between the boards and left to dry and season over the Winter so it will be ready for Spring construction. All is progressing nicely especially since I am able to get all this stuff coordinated seemingly without effort. Life flows on. Really, "I" don't do It --- It just happens. It's unbeleiveable compared to the way I used to "was". No problems just "isness". Big joke actually. Har di har har. Learning lots about all the mysterious things involved in construction. I'll start posting digital photos of the land and construction from time to time in the files. That is if I ever get my replacement digital camera back. Retreating, once again, to my burrow for the time being. Peace and happiness, Victor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
