We need a well

 A well is on top of our list of priorities. 

We got one going.  Nice! 
Now, we need a shed around it. 

Debbie and I assembled a shed we bought at Home Depot.  Getting a shed on the very unlevel ground was a bit of a challenge.  Now we have a well and a shed for some storage.  We have also been clearing the land making paths like a crazy especially along the creek.  

 The inside of our new "well shed".  We love it!

Connie and Duane came and camped with us on two occasions, with Kelly and Jason joining in on the second time. It's always been fun with company. Our company seemed to enjoy the place as well.  It's quiet and peaceful with trails to walk by the creek. There has been times when friends and family just joined us to spend the day on the land.  Relaxing, and again, fun.

It has no utilities, no ingress or egress.  A little jungle so to speak.  We saw the challenge and decided to turn this place into a little gem, a sanctuary.  We were sold on the creek.  The briars did not bother us, the tires did not bother us, the invasive trees did not bother us (Chinese privets, tallow trees,  Smilax,...).  Here we come! The creek is called Auchumpkee Creek.  Debbie suggested we call the place "Auchumpkee Sanctuary".  I agreed. We started off with machetes and quickly upgraded fr...
