Trail work

My back did ok yesterday when I worked on the trail so today I rode back up into the forest to do some more trail work. I wanted to rough out the part of the old animal trail I’ve been checking out.

Roughing it out

Mainly I wanted to make the parts of the old trail better in places it wasn’t so good. And I only wanted to rough it out so I can adjust it more on the next step to make it even more level than it was in some places.

The old trail goes through here. The trail’s not much in this spot but it’s at least is fairly level in this spot so it didn’t get much work yet as I worked on the worst spots first. And I could get through this spot without breaking my neck.

The old trail goes through here too, another fairly good spot.

Good place for a chair

I worked on mostly the steeper areas for a few hours, then headed back to the start of the trail where the chair was and you know what I did there.

Peaceful

I needed a rest so I spent some time in that chair just sitting and enjoying the peace of the forest.

Blocked road

Eventually I started for home going down this way when I could see the way was blocked. I’d forgotten about these downed trees.

The trees had the road blocked good so I turned around and picked another route.

A nicer way

This was the other route I picked to get down the hill which was actually a nicer way down than the way that was blocked with the trees.

Nice day.

Chicken door

I checked, first thing, this morning when I got it going and yes, it worked and the chickens were out and about. That’s good.

New phone

My new phone that I ordered to replace my failed one was supposed to come today and it did around two so I spent some time setting it up. Fortunately it did most of it and I mostly just had to accept the agreements, click, click, click. Does anyone read those things.

New mouse too

I got that done and then unwrapped my new mouse I got because the one I had seemed like it had a mind of it’s own sometimes and things would sometimes just change on my screen. That fixed that problem. That other mouse was touchy from the time I got it about a year ago.

Needing some exercise

About 5 I hopped on the dirt bike and rode up into the forest to do a little trail work and I had a small tree I wanted to cut off the trail.

I rode on up this trail, such a nice peaceful area.

And I parked the bike here where I was working on the old game trail.

I walked out the old game trail a short ways.

Where I had this chair, so I sat down for a bit to enjoy the day.

I’d brought up a small hand saw to cut this little tree limb out of the way.

Then I walked out the trail a ways, throwing limbs and sticks off where the trail was.

And eventually walked on back to the beginning of it where I had another chair to sit in and I did until the sun went down.

View

This was the view from that chair.

Sundown

The sun just went down so I called it a day.

Jumped on the bike and headed for home going the long way.

Down this road.

Water

When I went past the water tank area I looked on over to see where the pink ribbon was. About two feet from the bottom so the tank was almost full of water, so I can water the garden some more.

I continued on towards home down this road.

Nice day.
