The Story Behind It

Toward the end of last year, The Fuzz heard the sound of machinery in the woods across the creek.

When he checked it out he found this.
This part of the woods had been logged off.
Now the speculation began. Why did they do this? Was it just for the money? Or was there something more sinister going on.
Of course there were rumors.
Chicken "Farming" is big business these days.  So here is the sad reality behind our latest Mystery Pix.

Those things were some of the huge fans used to keep these poor things from suffocating.
And here's a look at the New View from the same approximate location as above.

Fortunately for The Fuzz and His Sweetie, This operation is downwind.

To The Woods

It may be remembered how The Encroach of Civilization has been mentioned here. It may also be remembered how a move farther back into the woods was also mentioned.

Well the process has begun. This is The Fuzz's Little Truck loaded up for the job at hand.

Here are some of The Woods in question.
This is a look at the "Road" cut in over the years.

It was right pretty out there. Here is one of the last of the Dogwoods.

What is in mind here, is to clear out a space, and move a Trailer out here. Of course Trailers aren't "Trailers" any more, now we have "Manufactured Housing". This will be a big undertaking. If The Fuzz, or His Sweetie were wealthy, they could simply hire someone to do it all and move in.
But this is a beautiful place, and we've wanted to live here for years. It never seemed to come together though. But now with The Encroach of Civilization and all, things seem to have a new impetus.

This is a small creek on the property.

Of course as much as The Fuzz likes Trees, (Tree Hugger as he is) some will have to be removed. And so, this was another project of this busy weekend. Here's a before and after look at things. There's still a long way to go with this.
We will have to get a septic system, and a well, all approved by the county of course. And there is a lot more to clear here.


Thought y'all might enjoy a look at this "Bicycle" the neighbor boy rode over on to help with the wood. It's kinda unique, I think.
