Fingers crossed!

I had to actually go outside and look for sure but what you see that is brown is a branch of dead pine needles. You don't see very many people in the woods up here, especially on your own property. One of our friends a few miles away did spot a black bear last week and we do have a herd of deer...

The excavotor is doing a good job on the drainage and is hopefully coming this week to backfill everything and help build the retaining wall, have plenty of good size rocks! I am actually going 10ft tall on the front end the garage to accomodate an 8ft tall garage door, the back side will be 9ft...

This week finally got some things accomplished. XCEL came on Thursday and buried my electric to the house, as I mentioned it was hanging right over the new garage, they came at 10:30am and were out of here at 12:00pm. My electrician came at 12:00pm and we proceeded to hook up the new power feed...

Cool project, stage #2 of my project is jacking up my cabin about 4-5ft to meet grade of my new garage. Man, it's a process as you probably know!

There are still affordable deals on properties on smaller lakes up here. Taxes are very reasonable on those properties, off water property can also be had at good prices. Always shop in the fall as sellers just want to unload before winter so they don't have to do all the winter prep.

That is quite a project, keep the pics coming.

I'd say you are doing well for a young guy, that's because you have common sense and actually think about things before you act on them. Your analysis makes a lot of sense for what you want. Just watch the real estate markets as I'm sure you do and if something comes up that fits your needs you...

I hear you Pete, I would love to stay here as long as I can but health and family will also be a factor in what comes down the road for us. Sounds like you have a great spot down there.

It is a shame that the colleges are allowed to profit off parents and put young people into so much debt. This should be looked into by someone because it really borders on corruption, these colleges have so much money stashed away it's disgusting. The lending companies should also be walked...

As you age you most likely will make a decision on whether having two properties is right for you. I did it for many years but then got tired of maintaining two homes, paying two sets of utility bills, insurance, and property taxes. It got to be too much after I got into my sixties, also...

Very pleased with Property taxes on my Vilas County lakefront home. You also have to remember that you are not getting much for those taxes, pretty much school if you still have kids that age if you live here, snowplowing in the winter, emergency services are volunteer in our little town, fire...

Thank you and God Bless all of our Veterans for everything that did to fight and protect our Country.

You never know what lurks beneath the surface..........

You're sled and trailer look very clean, good luck selling!

Double Rainbow sunset last night after the storm, power was out for 8 hours, glad we just bought a generator......

So Cool!

Great pictures Gary!

Make sure my parachute is on and functional.

Jim, I am waiting for Xcel to bury my power line so that the excavator can work without having to drop the line everyday and rehook it up. That was supposed to happen this morning but due to the storms last night there is many customers still without power this morning so they cancelled. Guy...
