Dave, calling Dave!

easy kassy, you don't you stock up and snuggle in like a bear....total Isolation...if I didn't have 5 teenagers...I'd LOVE it, just give me my ipod and internet and plenty of food and my books and tell the world to go away!

Venice, it is land locked because people own land all around it. We have to go through a neighbors land out there to get to the forty. He took the neighbor some fresh eggs this time, and she let me take some seeds from a plant she called "love in the mist".............I'm still trying to find that one.....Hmmmmmmm

Trina, if he had a road in there that was actaually a road, I think he would condider moving there.................He might have to find a new GF then...........LOL I'll stay where the puffballs are. And good luck getting internet there.....not sure if our cell phones even work out there...........LOL

High land.

More trees....
Do you see the white birch in the back? I got a better picture of that one. I need to download it though.

yeah but see with 40 acres, you take and lease about an acre to a cell phone company for a tower...that way you get service and the lease pays the yearly taxes and the insurance on the place....use it to pay for itself!

A little goody, on topic, for you Kassy.

They would have to put the tower in the swamp.........the land most years is 70% swamp and 30% high ground.

Yes Venice or at least the 70% that should be swamp has a ton of ferns. We had a very dry summer this year.

Thank you, Thank you Thank you Jean, that's them ^_^
Now I hope I got more then one color or I may have to go back there..........LOL in the dark........LOL

don't matter where it sits Kassy especially at $1500 a month they could put it anywhere!

I don't know about you, but I could use an extra 1500 smackers a month....1031 a month on disability aint much...would make things alot easier!

How did ya get that trailer in there?

A baby pine.

Got one right....laughing hysterically....grin

LOL moom
A baby Spruce

you guys are terrible! But I love it!!!!

stupid shamrocks! gotta clean up my owie now!

His uncle got it in there on a path that is made for driving on, with the cab of a semi. At that time the path was not as grown up as it is now. As you could tell the trailer is old. BF and his daughter just use it as a blind to hunt from at hunting time. We didn't even go in it when we were there.

Lots of pine cones from that HUGE pine tree that he was standing by!

A baby Blue Spruce ^_^

A small skinny Tamerack

A BIG Tamerack tree

Nice rock Kassy! :)

pine cones....I got some craft ideas for pine cones!

I love this picture. I have always liked the white birch trees. I love the way the grow together.

oh that is nice Kassy!

LOL Lynn, I have more, but I have to get through the forty pictures first ;-)

trina, we grow pine trees from those pine cones...........LOL
Here are a bunch of them.

A bunch of young pine trees

note to others when using a serrated spade to dig up your shamrocks (or other plants) make sure you don't hit your foot with it!!!!

OK will post this picture for Lynn and then go back to the last of the forty ones.

Here you go Lynn............These rocks are a mixture of slate and sandstone ^_^

LOL trina..............I sure hope I don't.........but that would be something I would do too!

My kinda place, kassy, lots of water no weeds.

Good thing hes not camera shy! :)

Some day we will have a forty of pine trees, well on the high ground we will anyway.

He is far from camera shy. I will have more of the water later.........let them try to put in plant ID and it will be interesting what I come up with...........LOL
I bet no one told you that i'm a rebel, did they?

A very tiny pine tree.

Think I read that somewhere.
Wold you happen to have any idea why my flowering almond bush is blooming again?

More PInes............Notice less ferns?

Kassy, how long does it take to grow a pine tree from seed?

Do you have animals in that forest?

I would have to ask BF if he knows.

We are taking a road trip now...............taking camera with me just in case i find anything interesting.
Back a little later ^_^

lots of animals

OH, you bet we do, will show you some when I get back!

bye Kassy...later

oh be still my heart..kassy can you fed ex that rock to me??

LOL Lynn.........I will have more rocks with the water pictures. And tomorrow we are going to a Park on Lake Michigian.

Education here now...........
Scrapes are areas on the ground where bucks paw the soil away with their hooves. They can vary in size from as small as a foot and a half wide to sometimes seven or eight feet. They are most often made and maintained prior to the rut. Deer make and maintain scrapes as a way to communicate with other deer. They leave their scent by urinating over their back legs onto the tarsal glands. Then they rub their tarsal glands together and squeeze urine over the scrape. This leaves a strong distinct smell of that buck in the scrape.

As BF put it, they put their foot in it after they pee in it...........sounds like my kind of guy............NOT!!
This is a buck scrape ^_^
