Default Little HUP on the prairie

Once done, I will top each of the four corners off with gravel, level it out and build piers for support. Bob has a container moving rig already made up, so moving the box should be fairly easy - if the ground dries out enough.

Bob and Grant took down a few dead trees and a few that were close to the power lines. Being quite warm (by our standards), the tree felling was followed by a well-appreciated beer.

Thankfully, the fun never ends at the barn!
Rob, with all the land clearing and HUP House building, this is starting to sound like a reality show called "Little HUP on the Prairie".

Nice to hear that the Hammond Barn crew survived the winter and is now into summer mode. I came across my first batch of wasps who also survived the winter and were already setting up home in my salvage Iltis. You have to be careful when jumping into the vehicles and lifting hoods.

Any news on a potential meet and greet at the barn? Then we can admire all the updates in person.......... Have a great summer!

Cheers!
Stuart
