We bought some land

[PARA45]

Unfortunately, we have not. I'd like to one of these days if I'm not too tired from working. LOL!!!!

It's been raining so much in Middle Georgia that we try to get the most done before the afternoon storms roll in. Not sure about where you are in AL, but it's been a really wet Aug for us.

I’m on the coast and we had just shy of 10” in July. Been dry so far in august though.

Between yesterday and today, we are close to 1.5" of rain. The Ocmulgee River is down the road from where I live, and there is a little fishing area and that is all under water now. Lots of flooding in that area.

BTW, I forgot to include a picture of what it's going to turn into a cigar lounge. I hope my wife doesn't other plans for this place.

 

[PARA45]

I had some free time and went by the farm to do a bit more work inside the trailer. Mrs. PARA45 doesn't like fake the wood look of the cabinets and wanted them painted in white instead. Who am I to argue. So, woke up early and went to work.

Before,

Some of the after a couple of coats of paint. Still more work ahead of us, but will get there eventually.

Its fairly rare to get an old trailer with a fireplace...nice find!!!

 

[PARA45]

Oh no, that is a structure that is not attached to the trailer. This is where the fireplace is located.

We finally finished the deck and finished painting most of the kitchen cabinets and walls. Seems like the previous owners never cleaned the wall, some spots it took 3 coats of primer to cover the stains.

Some pictures of the cabinets with the painted hardware.

My hunting camp has that same wall paper I got to paint over that soon

Wow great job! I think @Just Gina would even hire you

 

[PARA45]

I’m easy, but not cheap.

 

[PARA45]

We used the original hardware, cleaned them up a bit and painted them black. The contractor’s (wife) idea.

 

[VertigoBE]

Wow, the progress is going well!
I do think there needs to be an African fire pit in there somewhere

You really did great! Amazing what some fresh paint will do

 

[PARA45]

Patience my friend, there will be fire pit

Interesting how life is…I have owned my farms for 24 years now. When my wife died I sold the large one. Now as I near retirement I am seriously thinking of selling my final 40 acre farm in a great desirable location outside Atlanta with a home variance and a well to build my Africa war chest fund until I can’t go anymore which I estimate is 20 more years. I would rather make great memories versus just owning land. Please don’t misunderstand me…I well remember the excitement and pure joy when we bought ours and did exactly what you are doing we completely over renovated a double wide that was our hunting lodge with so many incredible memories made with my family and children. They are adults know moved away in their own careers so it is time to move on with Africa in my eye and dreams. The funds would enable nice yearly hunts
