We now can live in our own GATED community....

Stu headed out early this morning to work on getting the gate we bought yesterday at Tractor Supply put in place. He had already utilized an old utility pole for the supports. All he needed to do was dig the holes and mount the gate.



Now keep in mind, he is doing this with a handheld post hole digger that we bought at a yard sale last fall.

Looking from the road into our property....


Looking from our property out to the road....


Note said post hole digger is the current post on one side. He still has one pole to go as well as adding guy wires for support...

Here is our latest financial status....


Stu will be gone for two+ days this week, we hope to have the electric/water work set up to start by the time he returns.

Still rolling,

Things moving along....slowly, but moving.

Stu met with the electric company engineer and found out what was needed to get power to our RV site as well as the restrictions on putting water in the same ditch. The next step was meeting with our contractor to get an estimate on that work. We are currently waiting for him to get with an electrician and get back to us with a quote.

Since it looks like it will be a couple more weeks before we can move to the property, we extended another month here at Maple Hill RV Campground.

The driveway looks good, still a little soft on one side but time will take care of that and it's not on the side where the RV will be parked.

Here is our cost tracking thus far:
