of stream...

Is that where you live? Nice!

not full-time. 🙂 A day here and there, and on some weekends.

I see a deer....

^ 2 legged?

I think I see deer too. Over to the right?

Couple of sticks of dynamite might make that bend a nice swimming hole.

A neighbor (and by "neighbor" I mean lives 3 miles down the road) said that the previous homeowner, two owners ago, did that. Well, he didn't use dynamite, but he did dam it up with something and made a swimming hole. The only problem with damming it up is that in heavy rains the creek floods and will wash just about anything away. After hearing this from a neighbor, I think it may have explained what the heavy cable was spanning across the creek at two areas, but they were snapped. I thought maybe it was for keeping cattle in, but I guess it held something else together.

That is a great therapy spot! Just being there along with a good cigar will clear your head quick!

^ no.. more toward the center...

I thought this was the backyard view from Ram's smoke shack.

#9, I found another spot on the opposite side of the property this past weekend that I hadn't really scoped out yet. It overlooks another creek just like in the pic that I hadn't seen yet. It's right on the bank of the creek, in a bend, and the bank sits up about 4 feet from the creek. There are 4 decent sized trees positioned in a trapezoid shape, and I thought it would be a great place to build a treehouse or some type of platform to do just that (enjoy a cigar). Since it's right at a bend in the creek, you have a good view in several directions that it could also double as a deer stand (IF I hunted). I would just have to build it high enough off the ground to avoid having it washed away in a flood. I've already started looking up websites on building a treehouse...not like I would when I was a kid, nailing random boards into a tree.
