A few pics of my woods,


from the road,





entering the woods,





Our Casa is almost 1/2 mile off the road, behind the woods, 'bout a 100 yards from the center of the section. We like the privacy.



Here one from in the woods looking out towards the entrance.









Looking towards the Casa.










Around the curve, heading for the bridge over the creek.







I am truly a blessed Man, The Missus and I LOVE this place!

Mobetter, could you post a picture of some of the oak that you think has been down for 20yrs. I processed some a while back and was wondering how long it was down. I would like to compare.

Here's one lightning blew the top clean off,





Going to use my home made Alaskan type mill and make some nice shelves for the Barn, I will get plenty of slab wood for the pile.





Anyone venture a guess on the species?
