I'd rather have a weekend rather than a weekstart

Noel, the greatest CFI!!
My CFI was scheduled for a check ride on satruday since our local Civil Air Patrol is getting a new 172. We spent part of friday helping him prepare for his upcoming ride: 55 degree steep turns that have a little over a G force, power on and off stalls, and S turns, and oh yeah, our favorite, traffic patterns!

Jason Harris launching fire wood!
Me next to the tree to cut down later. I got the easy part, driving the snogo down the trail.
We drove the snogo right up our little trail, with a few minutes of getting stuck in snow waist deep.
Making a trail to our trees that will serve as the sill logs on top the pilings for our house. We spent saturday scoping out tall straight timber to cut, delimb, and cut to size to drag back to the lot. Our builder expert friend, Jason, (who I also teach middle school with), is predicting 8-9 trees that we'll need to harvest.
Romay armed with a Savage semi-automatic .22, (thanks to Kevin!) Although we didn't see any rabbits, she did target shoot at a snowball on a tree, Kemper had to run up the bank and chase it down.
