FUCK MOLES!!!!!!!!!!
Just got done mowing the yard and there are 6 mounds of dirt the size of a God damn watermelon in my front yard. Those fuckers must move quick since they were not there on Sunday when I put down some insecticide.

I actually got home right after 5p today so I chugged a beer real quick and headed outside to liberate a few oaks that I recently found on my property. I quickly (with a bow saw and pathetic electric chain saw) cut down the cedars and had to pull a few out with the 4Runner due to how they fell into other cedars. The end result is that I now have 4 tall oak trees that can start a new life partially free of those damn cedars.





I have some more cedars to cut down to completely free the oaks; but that will happen later as time permits. Lots of improvements to be made this summer hopefully.

I'm jelly of all the trees you have. Nice!!

Not to mention you can drive your rig into your backyard. :)

I have a complete acre; but there is only one house on any of the lots around me. I have been known to drink a few and take the rig out on the lots behind me from time to time. Tonight I took my wife out to show her what I had done and the first thing she says is "if we cut down those cedars over there we can build you a decent sized shop".


I love her.

Got some work done in the man cave today. Built the frame for the bar, ran power for the fridge and some outlets for behind the bar. The fridge will go in the middle and the gap next to the wall is for a trash can.


View from behind the bar.


LED can lights I put in a few months the ago.


next will be to start on the walls but don't see my weekends allowing any time for about a month.

Some good looking stuff!

Talk about going riding in your back yard - we were surrounded by soybean/corn on one side and couple of homes on the other. We had 2 ac.. I got two concussions from my 100 cc Kawasaki in my back yard. I think my neighbor got a little nervous when we started to build some moto jumps in the back. No worries, my dad put a stop to the motocross track idea. :) lol

Nicer bike, nicer bruise. My buddy with a Husky had the most prominent.... He caught a cable with his neck. Looked like he was a jihadi victim. Fully recovered but the scar was NASTY!!!

Thanks guys. I can't wait for it to be done but it's coming along. Still need to figure out the bar and counter top. I would like to use something I can do myself and I want it unique so suggestions are welcome.
