joeware - never stop exploring... :)

About three years ago I said that I needed a tractor for my property. I finally saved up enough to be comfortable to buy one and the matching implements… Here is it next to my house, truck and car to give a feeling of scale; that truck is a Dodge 2500 Power Wagon (aka OffRoad […]

I raised a flag pole just in time for Flag Day…   I still have quite a few rocks to put down as you can see. I will surround the whole flag pole with them and then put some nice soil over the top of it and then plant wild flower seeds. Rating 3.00 out […]

I keep getting pings about putting up more house pics. I finally posted some more up through February.

Our neighborhood was just covered in them the last few weeks well except for the neighbor across the street, I think they spray something to kill them off. They actually looked […]

I spent most of today in the rain trying to pick stuff up around the back yard where I am reclaiming the “yard” from the “woods”. I am greatly hampered by piles of crap that are just randomly stacked up around back there. In the end I will likely spend hundreds of hours cleaning up […]

I need to get some photos but I have started repatriating[1] my yard. I started mowing out around the pond where I could which hasn’t been mowed in some time. For some reason the former owners dug out some of the pond and just stacked the dirt up around the pond making it impossible to […]
