    I might be able to come help you out for a day over the weekend. Friday I'm done early and as far as I know nothing is going on that weekend. It would be nice to come help you out Dave. I don't want the wood I'd rather stack it 4 foot for you to have when you need it and start stocking up. I'll PM you as it gets closer.

    Well, here's what I am planning on -

    Arrive friday, noonish. Camp in my van for two nights. I hope others are planning to stay overnight, becausee if it's just me, I might get a-scared.

    Porta John on site - good

    Cell service?
    Potable water?
    Road in still have ruts? Deep? I recall hearing about ruts. Might be someone else.

    Cell, Yes! I'll have a camp style porta-potty set up. I am bringing 5 gal jugs of water but my well will be operational with the generator I'm bringing. You won't have any issue "Now" with getting on the land. I'm going to smooth it out with my Loader once up there but you can still make it. I'll have those pop-up tent canopies there and those metal benches. Directions are easy Mike. I'll PM you.

    If you had a tour or two in the military, You would become accustomed to primitive utilities. No such thing as modesty among the men. using a burn barrel to sit on, or passing water into the end of pipes with a dozen others was just ordinary. The trench was common when I was young. Not always that way, many variations but few gave you privacy. Let me tell you, those things were among the least important things you had to deal with.

    I would like to come Friday afternoon to say hi, scope out access and maybe do some cutting and staging by the road of any wood on the ground left over from last fall. Saturday I'll come with my husband and a trailer. We can bring lunch! Does this sound reasonable? Who else is coming, and when? I don't want to miss seeing anyone, and I'm totally flexible about timing, except Sunday, when I will probably be babysitting.

    Na, it's an actual RV/Camper style one with a tent enclosure. As far as the #1 process, you can water any tree your heart desires!!! :rofl: :lol: Even the satellites can't see you!!!

    Well, The way I see it who ever want's to take the drive is more than welcome. I'll be there and MikeinMa will be there Friday. Most of Friday will be getting things set up and when I get my loader up and running, I'm gonna smooth out the road onto the property a bit. I would say any day Friday on... Lots of wood to get. :stack:

    I'll know for sure in a few days if I can make Saturday work. My daughter moves into college the following weekend and the wife wanted to try to do something with her next weekend, no real plans now but with these two it could change Friday night.
