Thanks. I'll take a closer look at those bushings as well. It's old a rusty, so I don't expect it to be perfect, but the better the joints move the longer it should last me.

Thanks. I'll need it more and more as I get farther down the road.

I do try to be consciously aware of putting safety first, or at least a close second ;)

Thanks. Next video with my first dump truck use is coming soon. There were some hiccups.....

It's Central Canada, near the Ontario/Quebec boarder.

Thanks for watching. Hope you enjoy.

Thanks Liv. Feels like it's starting to come together now.

She is great entertainment up there, and loves water more and more each visit.

Thanks. I do enjoy just sitting on the porch looking at the view.

Ya, I've caught a few trail cam shots of a bear, but yet to see one in person. They are good at keeping their distance, and I'm aways very careful about leaving a clean camp behind.

They sure do. Neither of them like to long drive so much, but love it when we get there.

shhh, don't tell Amanda ;).

@@TheLandAndLegacyI can't seem to comment separately. But I enjoyed watching Rory swim, Luna go boating, and you working hard in that heat! Thanks for posting

Thanks Liv. Can't wait to help get your project started!

Seems CZcams didn't like my initial reply, lol. But yes, I've thought of that too. The beaver pond is a really nice area and is actually much nicer as a pond. We have lots of options and work to be done in that area.

Thanks kido. It suck I lost all the great video you did. We'll make up for it next time your there.

Wow, thank you. That is the nicest comment I've received so far. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching!

Not exactly the best way to spend a Canada Day, but I got to make use of the time a get for this ;)

lol, yes, if only I could trust the animals not to eat the leaves, or block it off somehow.... I'll put it on the list ;)

Ya, we have a few options to consider for Kalia's spot. I want to let the beaver do his thing for a bit too, then we'll have a better idea what we are dealing with.

Ya, better busy then dead!!! He seems to do most of his fixing at night, so the trail cam isn't turning out that great.

Ya, I do sometime use the air compressor to blow things out as well, but usually find the gummy sawdust doesn't blow off that well. I do also love that saw. I've been considering getting some nice dogs for it as well, but haven't really needed them, so haven't bothered yet.

Not quite raw. The old log skidding trail has helped up until now. Much less of a path to follow now though. Fingers crossed.

Thanks. I'm really hoping the beaver situation can work out this way, but always nervous about what others will do. This lake is so dependant on the beavers and others don't seem to care about that. Still lots of work to do on the road but I'm happy how it's coming along.

Same! I worry I'm asking too much of that little guy.

Thanks. I had planned on bring some wire up, but totally forget, so we were sort of making due with what I could find and hoping for the best. They were delicious!.

Thanks. I've been pushing the limits on that Ranger I think, and if the weight is to far to the front it can be hard to dump, but as long as I don't over do it with the load, it works great. Much faster/better than using the tractor. Plus it's fun ripping back on the driveway for the next load ;)

@@TheLandAndLegacy that is awesome 👍😎

I didn't hear Shawn complaining so it must have been good. Wasn't much ash left on it anyway.

You don't really have to "do" anything. Justing being out there is doing it! Hope you had a good time.

Ya, it ended up being a late dinner, but well worth the wait. Glad you enjoyed us fumbling through it.

Thanks. I made back in time to go over for tea and cake after dinner!

Somedays it works out, other days it's 2 steps forward 3 steps back.

Thanks 👍

These were half husked already, so we just did them without husks. Turned out great though. I can still taste that steak....

Thanks for watching!

Thanks, but the tractor did all the real work. Glad it's done now though.

I'm sure your right, and much more in there too.

Ya, the tractor has been amazing. It has it's limits, but I'm super impressed with how much it can do. There is no way I could do much of anything up there without it.

LOL, I'm not worried about that. They maintain the entire ecosystem of the lake. I can spare a few tree for that cause.

@@TheLandAndLegacy Should be, trees kill alot of people in Canada every year. It is news cause it isnt done by anyone.

Thanks! It's been a lot of work so far, but lots more to come. The next main section will be a challenge.

You are most welcome :)

Thanks. Somehow the picture doesn't do justice to the amount of work put into this so far.

Those were the days!

The seatbelt is always plugged in. Either on or behind me, but always plugged in. That was not the problem. With the tracks, in low gear I'm only moving about 10-15 lm/hr. In high gear maybe 50, but ya, I should have it around me for that. In the summer with the wheel on I do always wear it for sure.

Thanks!

lol, yes you did!

Trust me, I've contacted everyone! The problem here was that it was the township that did it, and they claim to have the authority to do this. They sort of do, and one government org doesn't seem to like holding another government org accountable. They did overstep their authority here and didn't follow any sort or process, so I've managed to get their hand slapped, so to speak, and had them apologize and agree to contact me in the future. We will see I guess.

Ooops, sorry.

Thanks. Really nice seeing some beaver activity there. I'll get you up there someday for sure.
