Getting Settled In

All the smaller open items on the house have now been completed, the "house" is pretty much done now. The only real open item to complete is the wood boiler/ radiant floor heating before the colder weather gets here.

The pavilion for the wood boiler/ tractor implements is now 100% done, just need to now spread more gravel under it, first load of that was already delivered today, second one coming later this AM.
The log railing is now 100% complete, looks great and came out the way we wanted it to, a blend of rustic to go with our house theme.

The walk-in game cooler is now installed, chilled and ready for deer & beer! We picked it up on our trailer and Lorrie and I, using pipe to roll it on, removed it from the trailer down into the deer processing area and rolled it into position. We plugged it in and we are good to go! Bow season for deer starts next Saturday, we will see what we can do to put one in the cooler soon.

We purchased our living room furniture, a file cabinet for my office and a stainless steel table for the deer processing area, they coincidentally were all delivered yesterday.

The deer food plots have been prepared, seeded, fertilized and we got a very nice rain early this week so they should be greening up soon. I was also able to finally get some time over the weekend and clear (chain sawed) the ATV trails open that have had down trees all over the place since that big storm this summer that took the power out for 8 days.

Our dear friends Sophie and Hans Klossner & Brenda and Ray Iniquez, along with our two boys Christopher and Danial, are going to be our first house guests, they are all coming next Friday to celebrate my birthday and spend some relaxing time with us, looking forward to sharing our paradise with all of them (and finally a little relaxing)!
Wood Boiler sitting in its new home, just need to put the chimney through the roof and this end is all connected and ready to go!

Two sections of deer food plot all tilled, seeded, fertilized and ready for rain. Rain did come as planned so things should be greening up within a week or two.

Completed log railing and new living room furniture.

New island bar chairs, we finally can sit at the island!

Saved the best for last, this is the walk-in cooler installed, chilled down and ready to go!
