Hart Hill; One for the Ages
Trip Date: October 1, 2020
I have been going up to the property just about every other week for most of the summer. This has been an epic year and we have stayed on schedule with getting the trailer up on top, getting the cover built over it, adding the decks on both sides of the kitchen and the stairs…
Hart Hill with my Oldest Brother Mike
Trip Date: September 21, 2020
