Bridge update and hunter update

Post Thanksgiving, we went to go walking and check out the new bridge and show Julie the woods. The corner fell out from under the bridge...

Hunter blind just off of the road (on the left) above the second culvert. Matt's deer trolley is next to the barn. He (I think) used his leaf blower to clear off the yard and make trails into the woods. Does he have a hunting permit (or does that make a difference to you all?) , is he allowed to have a blind, and do you think this blind is too close to the house?

Happy Thanksgiving 2016

Bob and I went to check on things and enjoy a warm November day. There are some ruts in the newly graded road by the bridge from the piano movers' truck, but we had no trouble. Bob even went over the ruts with Bert (our SUV) to even them out a bit.
We emptied and turned off the refrigerator. There really was hardly anything in it. The oil tank (filled while Eric was there) says over 3/4 tank. The water is off. We turned on all the faucets and flushed the toilets and drained as much water out as we could that way. The thermostat is set at 50 degrees. The 'piano room' looks a bit bare without the piano! It should be arriving in its new/old home in Great Falls today!
The yard has been leaf blown and some paths created with a leaf blower, and Matt's (Saunders?) deer carrier is back next to the barn. I assume he's the one blowing leaves: he did it last year. I haven't signed any hunting licences, although I have talked to Rene and Steve Larosa on the phone.
So - the house is ready for whatever winter has to offer.
Happy Thanksgiving to you all!

The New Bridge!

 The Prius makes it across!

The flooring is amazing, the bridge seems very solid. The black plastic is still down along the brook and there are no posts/railing along the roadside on the embankments approaching the bridge on either side: a bit unnerving with the drop off on either side.  The equipment is all gone, the roadbed is solid and seems compressed down. There's more water in the brook, we've had a bit of rain, thankfully. Our governor has issued a water advisory! All's well at the house.
