Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

Things like that are unfortunate. Your also run into family members not wanting to let go of anything too. There is a piece of property that my grandfather owned that was originally part of a tract of land from the land grant system from when the colonies were settled.

I showed strong interest in wanting to take it on and continue farming it but some people are just stubborn and nothing could be worked out. I am the only one that would be interested in not flipping it for a quick cash grab but I can't afford to buy my sister out of it when the time comes as its in a prime development area so I just try not to think about it.

I ended up buying my own piece of land with a 1880 something house on it

I’m beyond blessed with the Farm my pal lets me hunt. His grandfather knew his one grandson would never part with the property so he left it to my pal Joe. I’m sure there were some upset relatives, but Joe… he was one happy fella. I met Joe 15 years ago and we hit it off. I remember the first time he showed me “his gramps farm”. Since he has taken ownership he has really focused on cleaning up some of the fields to get more hay out of them.

Uncle Mike, he is hoping we can get over there and finish clearing the trees from that one spot….

I can bring the saws, but my back will have to improve for me to be of much help.

Let me know (in advance) when is good for you. I told Lynne we were not going to the cabin till next WE, so she made plans with Dennis and Haley for this WE.

Hopefully, we can get some hunting in also ... I'm still void of a deer this year.
