We have made it back from our recent trip to WV but we won't be home long!
We had a very productive time during August and most of September as we did some serious preparation with some seriously raw land! There will be quite a few photo's and tid-bits about logging, saw-milling, and chiggers...LOT'S of chiggers....coming soon!
My hope is to post a bit over the next couple weeks because we are returning to WV for the month of October so that we may complete a pole barn and 2 16X12 foot rooms on our humble abode!
The Lord is always gracious, and there is a lot to share with this new adventure and the things we are learning.
We actually made it through a month of no running water, and no electricity, with 9 children and 4 adults covered in chiggers and poison sumac for most of the time! We are talkin' serious lessons learned about WV wilderness living!
Thankfully, no bears have been encountered and everybody left with the same body parts they came with. And that, after dropping some 30 large diameter trees along with a hundred scrubs and bushes.
Yes indeed! We have much to be thankful for!
Well, as you can imagine there is a ton of catching up to do before we turn around and do the whole thing again! We also have two children that we will be teaching to read over the next few weeks, so ...busy, busy.
I promise that I will try and steal enough time to share some of the amazing times that we have had lately.
P.S., Did I mention our week long trip to Monticello and the surrounding area!!!
Hope to share soon.
Grace and Peace, Bob
