I wish you did also. So get this...was going to clear brush today under powerline pole area where part of the camp ground is going to be but first needed to cut the fence, pull post, and cut a road in to the area.  Power company calls and ask me if they can come tomorrow and cut fence and make road to the area where the want to remove all the brush. Ever wonder if  there really is a God? Wonder no more.

Many, many thanks John for all the help and hospitality today!  Maddie and I had a great time and are looking forward to doing it again soon.   
I was thinking on the way home, if you would like, Maddie and I could one of our missions when we come over to build you that heavy duty bench you and I talked about.  Seems like that might be a good use for some of that lumber jacking that I'm looking forward to helping you with.

LOL,  well I bet John would have an arrow that he made in the car he could jump in the ditch and stab the buck with for a clean primitive kill :)

Well, you may have something there, sir.  He probably would have better luck with that technique if he wants to get an arrow into a deer.
