A place like that is in my future pretty soon. I am looking at land to buy for my retirement hunting/fishing spot. I will put up a small cabin and a bunch of tree stands, cut some trails and live the good life. Deer camp for me will last all season, and spring and summer will be fishing camp. My spot will likely be in Michigan because my wife has family there. I can live anywhere there is land to roam, but she needs family near.
You have a great set up, Ron. I am paying attention to how you are getting it done.

Our plans changed when our first child decided to join the family. I didn't want my pregnant wife to go through the hardship of homesteading in the wilderness so Alaska remained a dream.
I had a picture similar to this in my workplace over 40 + years ago, written under it was "Ron and Nancy's Retirement home"
There's times when I'm sitting in RedBird's Nest in the evening with the kerosene lamps reflecting their soft golden glow on the pine logs, I can imagine I'm living my dream somewhere in the Alaskan wilds. My dear wife didn't get to see it in the making but I feel her presence there.
It won't be long before winter will send it's blanket of white on RedBird's Nest
