We've decided to call our land "Anam Cara". This name comes from the Celtic tradition. It means soul friend. We definitely feel that every time we are on the land. It is truly a wonderful place!
Instead of a bunch of text this month, I decided on a photo essay. Mostly because we have become so busy with working on the land it's hard to find time for much else. We've managed to complete the 600ft. access road, clear the homesite of trees and stumps, sawed about 3000 board-feet of white pine into sheathing and trenched 400ft. for the underground utilities. We
also received final house plans from the First Day Cottage so we can apply for a permit. Then we can really get moving! The white box on the trailer is our future tool crib! Jayne pitches in to chip brush. Joe is sawing up the white pine for the future barn. Dale on the Kubota backhoe is working on the utility trench. And David is busy building the access road (driveway). And below is the finished road. Can't wait to see it in the fall!
