Sometimes progress is measured by one trash bag at a time. Sometimes it is measured by a few feet of cleared brush/briars at a time. Keep it up, slow as it is right now, it will all get done.

My goats ate the vines off of a huge pile of trash that I'm still burnimg over a year later
I'll have it all burned this winter at least anything that will "take to a flame"

You started a music thread
Reminds me of a song by a local band Southern Culture on The Skids
"My Neighbor Burns Trash in A Barrel Out Back"
Check it out on Utube

I might have been a subject of that song. I have lost track of how many runs I've made to the dump but just about anything that is organic based and won't make my pasture toxic gets put to the flame. We have to have Burn Permits this time of year but that is a small thing.

I found the group OFA, but couldn't find that song...

We don't have to get burn permits, in our terrible droughts, there is just an all out burn ban. No burning, period. Then after 453 inches of rain in one of our mega storms-the ban gets lifted.

They were doing a lot of anti terrorist training at work this week so we took vacation time and spent the week taking care of loose ends. The power company came out Monday and set the power pole and rain power to the shop. We no longer have to run the 150 foot extension cord to the building to run anything. We are now officially done with the insulation and the sheathing inside the building and the next trip here will be a U-Haul with my tools from South Carolina.

I'm only adding the picture since the power company guys knew that we have been waiting for several months to get power and they worked in spite of the weather. had to take picture of the power pole in the right side of the picture.

PROGRESS! So glad to hear the good news.

Will you be nervous about moving all your tools in while you're not physically living there? That would make me pretty nervous... Looks good though!
