Wow, Don; I 'm going to have to read your journal more frequently.  We had 
beavers when/where I grew up, I don't remember "beaver guards"?  
This is the first I've read your journal since August, I think you were 
working on the big yellow tractor then.  I'm going to have to go back and see 
what I missed ....bobford

For pictures of the cabin, go to the journal entry for Wednesday of this
