Hi JB, Yes, the Mustang doesn't really fit in, but I know you get the reason for a fun ride with your Cobra. I get to drive it often enough, but less time for upgrades and maintenance than I'd prefer. When Hazel turns 2 in May, we'll put her in a front facing car seat which fits in the back of...

Managed to get some work in outside today between looking after the kids, being sick, and Sam going in to work this morning. The big accomplishment was finishing the tire rack and regrading the gravel in that room: Got the Kubota back into it's area and tried to pack things in where...

Looking forward to your progress. I love having a 12' wide door, but 10' should be no problem. As for the 18' as long as you don't park right up near the front, you should have enough angle to park two vehicles quite easily. One thing I would recommend looking into for them is jack shaft...

No picture worthy things to post up, but have made some progress. Yesterday I got the oil changed in the Jeep, then my better half and I got about 90% done making a wooden tire rack. It's about 6' long, 3' deep and two levels of shelves high. Hopefully it can house the many spare trailer tires...

Another small update. Juggling kids and doing projects means the projects need to be small or they won't get done. At least it's been very mild compared to normal, so they had a chance to test out their Christmas gift outside: And while they were semi-distracted, I got the other light...

Thanks for stopping by Bighead. Hopefully 2020 will be the year we actually turn this little plot into a farm.

Hello, everyone. Finally getting around to posting this. Got into some small projects between celebrating Christmas with the kids on the 24th and going to my parents most of the day yesterday. Here is Sam finishing off our garbage bin to hopefully deter critters: We also started getting new...

Thank you Bob! Having support is key and I appreciate the family that is here, which is part of why I'm back. I've also realized that I never read through your thread, which is one of the things I've started doing since frequenting GJ again. I'll post up once I reach the end (just don't hold...

Thank you ZRX61 and JB for the words of encouragement! ZRX61, I agree about cutting wood. Also moving the wood pile or picking stones from a field is also a good way to cure a hangover and build some character, at least that's what I learned growing up. I'm hoping with some vacation for the...

Hi everyone. This is a very long overdue post. Amazing that it's been over 2 years since I last added anything to this. First off, we've added another member to our family and both kids have been growing like weeds: For a long time, I've been dealing with depression. It's been tough times...

Looks like an awesome time JB and thanks for the photos. Some really cool rides there. Also glad to hear nothing major slowed you down, at least so far.

JB, Merry Christmas and happy new year to you and your family. Looking forward to your adventures in 2018.

Wow, that *****. Glad to hear that there was some monetary compensation, but as you mentioned the time and stress involved will never even out. All that being said, it sounds like you have a plan to fix as much as you can. Good luck and I'm still eager to see the amazing final product your...

Re: Foz Farm Restoration JB, Thanks for checking in. It's good to hear from you. I've really loved keeping up with your adventures. All, Sorry yet again for the lack of progress updates. Even with 2 weeks off for my pat leave, I barely stepped foot in the garage let alone made progress on it...

Those drains look great. Any link to where you bought them?
