When was the last time you took the time to really enjoy the outdoors? I don’t mean go out and cut the grass, sit back, drink a beer, and relish in a job well done. No — I mean get out there, get dirty, and really enjoy the blood, sweat, and tears of having fun out in nature!

When you are outdoors, be on the lookout for your arch nemesis!

Once you have a plan in mind, you need to go with it. When you get to implement that plan, there will be so much to appreciate!

Fun in a Forest means many things. How do you like to unwind in nature? Searching for that perfect place to visit? If you can find a tree, that’s a great start!

The house that Skinny built

My old “house” turned shed — weathered boards, windows now covered. It looks odd because I just tore off 12 feet from the front and started rebuilding the rest. This is what you get when you live in survival mode. What started out as a “party pad” back in my 20s has endured many years and is set to be torn down in 2026.
