    I'd throw metal on it.
    That is just begging for a lean-to...

    I can’t put a lean -to there it’s the driveway access to the back. IMG_2386.jpeg
    If you blow that snow pic up you can see the wave in the facia board..
    So past barn 100’ is the 30 ft circle of bonfire area

    and 200’ past that is the wood piles

    So can’t block only flat area (grass driveway) to the only flat spot on property..

    I've been with my employer 9 years today.

    On holidays for two weeks after today. Roof comes off the house tomorrow.

    Last night after work, and dinner, I mowed the lawn, and brought over a decent trailer load to stack in the shed. PXL_20250718_011928554.jpg

    The grass was damp, especially when I started filling the trailer up. So I didn't put a full load in it. That allowed me to get up the hills no issue. I also knew I'd be close to being out of daylight when I would be done with stacking it

    We'll have a fire tonight outside.

    Tomorrow we're going to the air and water show in Milwaukee. The blue angels are performing. Several other aircraft will be there too. F-22, f35, f18 from the rhino team, A10 warthogs B1 bomber, and others.

    We're not taking the boat this year, the harbor to the north of Milwaukee where we usually launch from is having a huge city wide festival. The roads will be closed and it will be a massive $hitshow so we got reserved parking for the car.

    My "day off" somehow turned into 18 hours of projects, chores, and running around.

    Yeah 22 acres is 2 finger lots about 4,000 feet long & 465 feet wide. I take all your suggestions seriously because most of them are good.
    My beautiful bride response.
    Sweet heart; we have over 1,000 feet of decks, 3.5 car garage with bonus room above it, 30x40 barn with loft above it and 22 x 10 lean to behind garage. Not to mention the anti social guest or quarantine cabin in the woods.. STOP adding we are getting older
    Just fix & finish

    I ordered a couple items from Walmart which were supposed to be delivered Thursday. They weren't. I checked tracking and my package had returned to South Burlington and would be delivered Friday. OK. Friday morning my wife sees FedEx truck at the foot of my driveway. The driver never got out and drove away. Tracking later says they attempted delivery and would have to reschedule. WTF????? There is no snow on the ground and we don't have a dog to prevent delivery. Today there is no update as to where my package is and when I will get it. We have had similar instances with FedEx in the past. They are by far worse than even the USPS! I will be very hesitant to order from Walmart again. They need a new delivery company.
