Wifey brought me down lunch while working in the Manetarium. Spent a good chunk of the day working on the 1776cc motor that will eventually make its way to the Speedster.

Well, that’s the new name of the fenced in area. Since it has a horse shoe pit and a BBQ pit is nearby the name Pitstop seems appropriate. I’m going to have a burnt siping made with stating just that. We plan on hanging it right at the driveway entrance gate.


I have no idea what I’m doing. I put tunes on the flat screen and play along whatever happens to be on at the time. I’m seriously going to have to get someone who knows how to play over here.

The shop driveway was super hot due to the 105 degree ambient temperature.

Well… not really, damn thing is leaking. Another thing to figure out around the homestead. All good, in time we’ll be enjoying the jacuzzi!

The black filter looking piece seems to be leaking from below the base area.
Our little fur ball gated community is now open for business! We have access gates on the shop driveway and the other side coming down the backyard access steps. This will be the path Jaxson and Serenity will take when they need to go potty.

The surrounding areas have been checked for fur ball escape routes and access for other animals coming in.

The horse shoe pit is now an exclusive members only attraction. Well, we’ve really never had anyone else come in and used the pit without us being home. It just sounds good.

Due to cosmetic logistics of using lattice on a steep incline we had to switch the fencing material used. We used three inch slats running vertically across the fence. It came out better than I had ever imagined. I like using the slats more than the original idea of using lattice sheets.

The other side came out just as nice. It extends all the way down to the vegetation garden planter box area.


These have been installed perfectly straight and super solid with one bag of cement used to hold down and secure each supporting 4×4″ post.


Our general contractor dropped off more supplies to build our fur ball kennel. We are going all out on this endeavor and I know Serenity and Jaxson will enjoy their massive additional playground. We’ll have to keep an eye out for other critters within the enclosed area. It will be interesting to see if this deters the T-Gang from invading that particular area of the property.
The kennel for the fur balls is progressing. The weather lately has been extremely hot and the general contractors crew needs to be careful in the amount of heat they’re exposing themselves to.

The poles that will be used with the 2×4 wired mesh have been installed. One of the advantages of using a a mesh versus a wooden fence is the ability to still be able,to see through and enjoy the properties natural landscape.
In the case below we are able to view the gazebo which we plan on having a center piece for our dream home.
