Camp work bee!
Every year for the past 15 years my family has gone to a christian family camp on a lake about 4 hours from here. The camp is about 80 some years old, and is really as away from it all as you can get. Its beautiful, and many lives have been changed there. for the past couple years since i got my cubs, I always took one with me and graded the half mile long entrance rode as erosion made it almost impassable to some of the small cars. every summer the camp has a workbee to cut grass, fix things and generally improve things. I've wanted to go for many years but havent been able to. my Graduation ceremony was that weekend as well, but I needed an excuse to skip it
I took the 1650 with box blade, 1250 #2 with 50 inch deck and hitch for sprayer, and a 149 with a tiller. on the trailer my dad bought for me and my dads truck. he filled it with fuel and told me to have fun. thanks dad!
volleyball pit before...
after
and the beach
some of the stuff the other guys were working on. building the new chapel! the old one is as old as the camp, and too small for the 250+ people at a family camp.
and building new trailer stalls. I was able to do a bit of grading, but not well, too soft. a bobcat came and spread out the piles. it was a great weekend, was good to go up there and contribute. thanks to all of you in helping me get these machines to a point that they can benefit people like this!
