You have a lot of value in lumber right there. You might be able to sell the lumber and get enough money to hire a Mennonite carpenter to build the lean-to?

Good call to make it a fall/ winter build, the physical labor of building things goes a lot easier in cooler weather.I'm about ready to get after my lean-to, it's not going to be fancy.

That's what happens when you do habitat management too well. All the deer want to be at your party.The younger 11 is in and out again, Old 8, Old 10, does, and a pile of young bucks, it's just a mess up there.

Nice work you’ve done and some good deer. I’m thinking bow works better if you point it the other way. But I have days like that too. Good luck season!

Lumpy looking better and doesn't miss out on his share of the little corn piles. Ears forward or ears back?

That tree might be perfect for cutting some arched rafters out of, if you can find enough of them for a full set, you might be able to build a really exotic lookin cathedral. How's the deer hunting going?I would like to find a straighter log than the one that I pulled out yesterday.

This part of the deer season is called the "October Lull" in PA. Bucks are not moving at all in daylight, and not more than they have to at night. Smart hunters are saving their hunting time for Halloween week.I think that the cathedral will be geometrical. I hunted once last week when I got the right wind and didn't see a deer. I have been busy looking for 16 1/2 footers before they all rot.

P.S. Geometrical in architecture means "a shape", so now I know exactly what the lean-to will look like![]()
