      I know what you mean about push mowing. Same thing here. I jacked up the riding mower & used a push mower to mow about a half acre. Coming together for you Chew.

            Mr. Chew,
            You've got a very nice place there and you've put a lot of work into it. But even the work can be fun when it's your own place. Seems like you never get it all just like you want it. That's part of the enjoyment or at least I think so.
            I love that country around there. Back in the 60s and early 70s I hunted my dad's cousin's 80 acres just South East of Centerville. Wasn't very many deer back then but I had a lot of enjoyment there. He lost the place in a divorce.
            In 88 and 89 I hunted a 2400 acre lease between Centerville and Buffalo. There were a lot more and better deer then than the early years. And I still liked that area. Beautiful country.

            Thanks for sharing your place and your progress with us. It pleasures me to see someone deserving being rewarded and enjoying life.

            Keep the thread going, please.

                          Awesome place ... just finished reading this thread. If you haven't hung the panelling on your new place I would suggest beefing up the framing by putting an extra 2x4 on either side of the door so it is a double stud frame. Would at least do hinge side at a minimum. The weight of the door itself is asking a lot out a single 2x4. Would also add double 2x4 headers (strong way) above the door and windows. After this add a cripple stud above the door and windows to pick up roof load (cutting span of top plate). Add additional cripples (or jack studs) to bottom of the window sills. Good luck with rest of your build - thanks for sharing.
