Just giving a better idea of ehat I have got done so far, with some pointers on stripping logs
2/20/09 - 2/21/09
Dan came over and helped me build quite a bit. He stripped most of the trees that you see. We also dug out a small tree that was standing in the way. Then next day, I got off to a late start, around 3pm. I put up the posts, but everthing still has to be fastend together.

Its all over and done with. I was just informed that land has been bought to my suprise, for constructing a house. Im not sure why someone would be buying and building at this point with the economy and all, but they are. And I am not happy at all; I have been playing in these woods for over 10 years. I guess we have been lucky enough that no one has built a house back there for so long, and that the previous landowner practically handed those woods to me to be my own personal playground. Trail building sessions, jumps, crashes, wrecks, races between me and my close and long lost friends, paintball wars, and so much more are going down the drain. I guess it was bound to happen at some point. Steeze, over and out.
