The Great Escape! Everyone should have one. Humble beginnings... ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/UlkGKml.jpg) Travel trailer w/porch update... ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/vhLqpeR.jpg) Nirvana... ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/cq9vmPW.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/JjoSrBT.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/mCMkL1m.jpg) I like the evolution from trailer to cabin!

Nice.
One of my cousins bought 80 acres of a larger farm in the next township. The house and barn got hit by lighting and burned to the ground back in the 1970s. All that is left is a well and a silo. He wanted to move in a building similar to yours for a hunting camp. He checked with the local zoning department first and they said no. So he said he would buy a camping trailer and put it there, he could not do that either. He could not even move in a trailer home. He could only put on a building with minimum of 800 sq. ft.. Should have turned the Silo into a multi story Hunting Hut who would know Some suggested he put a platform on top for a deer stand, but I will pass on your suggestion.  ![[Linked Image]](https://i617.photobucket.com/albums/tt260/jackpine44/millvillesilo_zpsfe96mi6a.jpg)

I concede a bit of a mission But anything is possible if desired

Sorry I had to bail on you Friday, Joe. (Insomnia the night before- zero sleep equals zero ability for me to do anything.) That building looks awesome there!
I spent more than a few nights in that old trailer and the worst thing about it to me certainly wasn't the wildlife inhabitants, rather the vigorous snoring that emanated from the front room!!

Yeah, John does snore pretty bad, worse part is he does it breathing in, and out.

We don't own this cabin but it is next door to our property. We can walk to our place. Our friends let us hunt on their ground as well. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/1GZ07ZKh.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/AEk4dZyh.jpg)

BIL's new place.Lot's of Deer & Bear. Is that in the Catskills? My club camp is in East Branch, Delaware Co. Wish I could figure out how to reduce photos' size so I could post them.

I accompanied Joe to his camp in WV on Friday, and I gotta say it's got a ton of potential. It'll end up a mighty fine place when he's done building out the interior. A good day was had by all, and lots of lead was thrown around (but mainly in the form of .45ACP bullets).
