Weed-whacked the edges of the lawn. Moved the &#8217;76 Scout II and the &#8217;48 Ford 8N tractor and mowed the\u00a0area where they are usually parked. (Left main lawn for Pam to mow, too wet for me to do.) Packed up the truck, kissed Pam good-bye,\u00a0and headed for the lot.<\/p>\n<p>Arrived at lot, unloaded the ATV, un-hitched the aluminum trailer, \u00a0unlocked The Box, and then hooked it up to take it\u00a0to the dump station. After returning to the lot, repositioned The Box to allow access to the area we have\u00a0been cleaning (hopefully the future building\u00a0site) with the ATV and trailer. Required a lot of jacking up and putting stuff under the wheels, as where\u00a0The Box is now parked is not very level. Process took about 2 hours. Off to get a load of water, 25.5 gallons added to the fresh water tank. Hooked the aluminum trailer to the ATV, pulled alongside The Box, and loaded the pile of firewood closest to the driveway.\u00a0Had \u00a0dinner and went to bed. It was about 9:20 PM.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2836\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.appleattic.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/30071.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2836\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2836\" src=\"http:\/\/www.appleattic.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/30071-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"The Box now sits a bit farther to the left of its former location\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.appleattic.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/30071-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.appleattic.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/30071-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2836\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Box now sits a bit farther to the left of its former location<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Monday:<\/p>\n<p>Slept in until almost 8:00 AM! Got up, checked mouse traps, removed and buried two mice. Had breakfast, fired up the ATV, moved aluminum trailer over to the F-150 and hooked up the truck and trailer. Backed the truck\/trailer up into the spot where The Box used to sit. Took the ATV and started to drag firewood from 3 different piles down to the truck. Kept this up, with a few breaks, until all the firewood I had stacked up was on the aluminum trailer. (This made the biggest load of firewood I\u00a0have ever brought home in a single load. )<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2837\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.appleattic.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/30076.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2837\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2837\" src=\"http:\/\/www.appleattic.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/30076-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Skidding wood with the ATV\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.appleattic.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/30076-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.appleattic.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/30076-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2837\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Skidding wood with the ATV<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_2838\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.appleattic.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/30079.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2838\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2838\" src=\"http:\/\/www.appleattic.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/30079-300x171.jpg\" alt=\"BIG load of firewood\" width=\"300\" height=\"171\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.appleattic.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/30079-300x171.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.appleattic.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/30079-1024x584.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2838\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BIG load of firewood<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Drove the truck and trailer down to the cul-de-sac, un-hooked the trailer, drove back up to The Box. Loaded the ATV in the back of the truck. Began process of putting stuff away and getting ready to head home. Had lunch, sat for almost 30 minutes in my recliner (best part of the trip!) then finished washing dishes, finished loading the truck, and shut down The Box. Walked around the cleared area for a while and enjoyed the view over to the Mosquito Range behind Fairplay. Planned the next phase, how to get the aluminum trailer close to the slash piles we created during the last two visits. Headed home, arrived in De Beque 4 hours later. Un-hooked the trailer, unloaded the ATV, emptied the truck of laundry, cooler, and other items used during the trip. Had dinner, checked e-mail, took a shower, kissed\u00a0Pam,\u00a0and went to bed.<\/p>\n<p>How was your weekend?<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s it for now.
