Off and on I think I should name the farm.
I dislike any name with “acres” in the title. It’s not quite a ranch, although the name “Almosta Ranch” has been suggested.
The farm sits at the 2 mile marker so I’ve been thinking about Two Mile Farm on Seven Mile Road.

Friday, Saturday and Sunday were perfect building days. Highs in the 60’s and 70’s and sunny. Friday started overcast and after doing some work in town, exchanging license plates and signing some papers, I paid for the lumber and it arrived shortly after I got to the farm.
Friday was spent setting the joists, 39 joists for a 16 x 48 deck.
Saturday and Sunday I screwed down the deck boards: 99 boards, 26 screws each. 2600 screws, The deck is 768 square feet, which is larger than the two cabins combined.
