Was another slow day for me. Spent most of it siting and reading. Got out this afternoon and started on the tower for the heater flue. Got it done except for the ladder side. Still have 6 rungs to cut and bolt in and it is ready to set upright. 3 feet on the side at the base and 1 ft on the side at the top, 15 ft high. Will get pix in the next day or so. Suspect that I will build many more of these to use as power distribution towers to get power to the base and the town where trees aren’t handy to hang the wires from. 🙄 Just won’t build ladders into them all. Takes a lot of bolts (4 per rung) as well as close cutting of the ends of the rungs to make the holes line up.

Walked and looked at the area that is gonna have to be leveled to move the trailer uphill tonight. Will be 3 to 4 feet of earth removal required. Should fill the parking area about level. Now to get the dozer running again. 🙄

Gonna go back out and look at things a bit more. Got several large trees to take out as well as several groups of smaller trees. Will make good lumber.

And that’s it for the night. Till the morrow… 😎

   ‘Twas a hump day. Got more done than Mon-Tuesday. Just a varied number of things. Some days are one or two project days, and some days are many smaller projects. Yesterday was the latter.

   Sitting here drinking coffee, and trying to wake up and get my brain going and figure out what I should do today…..
