Kennedy’s Little House in the Big Woods

We got the permit to put in the driveway so we spent Friday afternoon (08/27/21) clearing trees. Next step is to clear the stumps and then call in the big machinery to carve out the driveway. That’ll be a big milestone for us since we’ve been eagerly awaiting being able to actually drive onto our property. Bob cutting down one of the first trees: Laura clearing the lower branches to reduce the chance of Bob getting impaled when the trees fall: Bob got cocky felling trees and tried to cut one down the opposite way it wanted to fall. The result? Not one but two chain saws stuck in a tree! After much hacking away with the axe, we were finally able to work the larger chain saw out and rescue the second.

We started the first step of building our dream house in Pine, Colorado by closing on 8 acres on July 9, 2021. After three long years of searching and somewhere around 100 properties visited, God blessed us with the perfect piece of land.
