I've been busier than busy trying to get this facility up to snuff (being top dog in the berry patch, has it's ups and downs)...

It's an 82,000,000 square foot facility with all the great things lots of people love, including 10 miles of dirt roads, about 3/4 of a mile of trails (which I hope to expand soon), fishing, 2 pools, 2 hot tubs and a little put put which will be twice as large this time next year.

Over the last 30 years, every thing's been put in kinda half assed sort of way

My job was to get the employees on track to get things done around here in a more unified manor than the helter skelter way it's been done all along.

With that on track after three months the place is finally coming into shape, while there are still a lot of things to do, there's a semblance of order starting to be seen

I'm getting a lot of time in, been averaging around 320 hours a month and on salary, it isn't paying what it could.

But hey, I'm not complaining by any stretch, I get up, thinking... what do I want to do today... When the crew comes in two hours later, I tell them the game plan and that’s what we get to do... What could be better than working outside, in a beautiful setting every day, making your own hours, having a crew that is happy to clean up behind you, play the politics (such as this board has banned which is a good thing for this board), and every one seem to think I'm doing a bang up job... (At least I have a ton of people fooled ;) )

Other than that, I now have satellite Internet that is far and above faster than the dial up I had, and now can do a little more on this form of entertainment as I can find a little time to do it now.

One thing about dumping all the hours into this place, when hunting season comes up, I will be taking the seasons off to chase things, as most of my chores will be done or at least caught up... WOO!!!HOO!!!

I was up visiting Raybow a couple days ago and getting an awesome elk hunt planned...

I still have a few on the board I have to contact about other hunting and fishing ventures that were in the works before I left Montana

I'm running down to Wally world tomorrow to pick up another play set for the monsters to play on, so that should be fun (shopping with some one else’s credit card that refills after every month of spending)

One of the coolest things I've found here so far and it was only a couple days ago, on the edge of the property, there’s a really nice bow range, with a little work and some target bags, I will be making a 95-100 yard range, that should be enough to make things fun and a little challenging

Well, the days growing long and I've been at it for over 11 hours already (average day) I think I'm heading on

Until next time all, I'll still be posting pics in not to long, didn't want to with dial up, it would take months to get a few up.
 
Just a measly 80 hours a week Russ...what do you do with all the spare time?:D
Good hearing from you...let's see some pics.
 
Mr. Russ. I see you are surviving well. I tried to call about a week ago and got your vm each time. I guess you were on that particular road that screws with your service. Glad to see that you are working your tail off. Keeps you young.

Jen and I are going to be up there in 2 weeks and have a ton of things planned. We are actually going to be in Moscow. Kevin said he is coming over for at least a day. If you could make over that would be cool. I also have a friend from S. Africa in town that I havent seen for 20 years. Plus Dad and Sister there also. So I guess I will be real busy to say the least.

I looked on the internet for the place and it looks cool. Put some pics up when you can. Would be nice to see more of it...
 
Thanks guys, time flies when your having fun... :D

Sounds good Cameron...

My phone was down for a couple weeks (the guys ripped it out when they were putting plants in with the backhoe... OOPS)

I have to leave in a minute this morning for the day, I'll see if I can get some thing up before the end of the week...

:)
 
Work is great...

Sorry Stilllearning, I will be giving out the name when I finally get some pics of the place from my point of view instead of the last lazy facilities manager that couldn't get himself five feet from the office to get pics, it just wouldn't do it justice

Today I will be starting on the bow range, have a couple targets for field tips right now and will be making it so we should get a range of about 90 yards to flick sticks.

I took a walk behind to see what could actually get hit in the event an arrow went a little far, it looks as if there was an old trail behind the target range, or probably an old skidder road from days gone by more than likely.

The area is really cool, I want to get some pics in some better light than what I was in yesterday evening just before dark

The pics and things are getting closer, I promise all...

:)
