Cold Snap!

Got back from our trip to Alabama on Monday. Stopped by the old house. Looks like it's been there 150 years.

It was sure nice to see everyone. Next time we will have to head up to South Carolina to see Terry's family.

Cold this weekend. 14 below tonight and supposed to be 20 below tomorrow!

I guess the garage will have to wait a week or so for warmer weather. Curtis has the walls up and wrapped. Next, the roof trusses will go up. I don't really like to hire out carpentry work but it will speed up things a lot.

The garage is 30 x 28 and will have a 16 x 28 room upstairs. We will be tearing down the old shed this spring.

10 point White Tail Buck

Fred left early Friday morning to go down to the West Yellowstone area to hunt elk. He came home this afternoon and after about 20 minutes hunting in the back field he shot this buck.

November 17th

Fred was one of 160 recipients of the The Governor's Award for Excellence in Performance.  He received this for his work on the Bailey Bridge in Livingston, MT.

Our back porch.  This will eventually be screened in so we can sit out and enjoy the sound of the creek. It will also be painted to match the house.

Fred went hunting near West Yellowstone over the weekend and took this picture of Tony.
