Weekend update - did some major yard-whipping-into-shape this weekend, which included buying some new power tools (here and here.) Also picked up some pressure treated lumber and built a bench for the firepit, which, after a major assraking, is now cleaned up and ready to be burnt in.
Scott came out and helped do some work - including trimming up the side yard, moving a downed tree, and getting hogtown cleaned up.
I'm totally in hog mode. Getting the yard cleaned up made me real excited for this weekend, which, unfortunately, is looking like a bit of rain. Either way, we'll still be partying down and smoking 125 pounds of pork over the open fire. Goodnight, nurse.
Cleaned up the baksetball court, got rid of most the debris around. The hog pit will be moved due north 60 yards, to the now cleaned cement slab it was originally intended to be built on.
Burnpit full of debris from the yard. There are 2 more trees that are looking keen to burn - we'll see how the night goes.
Location of the hog cooker. This place will work a bit better, with electricity and room enough to operate. Plus, it will free up the basketball court for serving and throwing down.
Bench Abbie Proud and I built. Very simple, not the best looking, but very sitable. Will most likely be building 2 more before this weekend.
All in all, getting geared up for this weekend. We'll see what we can do, even though Jamie Simpson would call for rain on Saturday.
