Sparta Hilton Update #7

Every time we go to the Hilton I try to add something. 
The outside of our little cabin is ugly so I am adding little
things like this to make it homey on the outside. My
Sweet Mom gave me this welcome sign.

You all know that we love our swing. 
Behind the swing is a fire pit so I added
 some chairs for us to sit around the fire.
It is getting fire building weather.

We added a flag to our shed.  It was perfect!
We are proud to be Americans!

This is hanging outside the front door.
I bought that little wooden flag at a thrift store.
It has been broken and I fixed it.

This little wood work was already there. It is above the front door.
We will leave it there but hopefully we will be painting the front door
to dress it up some the next time.

Do you see the chair?
Here we are putting up deer stands and blinds and shooting houses
when all we probably need is a chair.  There are 2 chairs on this property.
They are sitting in very good places too.
The chair.  I would love to hear the story behind it.

Yes, this is another blind.  This is "Sweet Hunter's" blind. 
I wonder if he wants 2 little tables in his to put all of his stuff.
(like chap stick, a book, a flashlight, etc.)  (lol)

"Sweet Hunter" wanted to cook some Brats (is that how you spell it). 
Anyway, I am not a fan of these.  But guess what?
I LOVED them.  We warmed up some sour kraut and grilled the Brats on the grill.
They were delicious. 

Then we went to shoot our guns....actually both of these are my guns (he says).
Remember when I shot this one here at home a while back and got bulls eyes?

Well it didn't happen this time!  "Sweet Hunter" hit the bull's eyes.
I was getting so frustrated.

But then I tried my new rifle.....Oh my goodness! 
I thought I loved that little camo 223 Thompson Center Contender until I tried this rifle.
It is a Thompson Center Encore in 257 Roberts Caliber.
I had first told "Sweet hunter" that I didn't care for this gun but he kept on for me to try it.
I was afraid it would kick but it didn't.  I love it.
I still didn't hit the bulls eyes but I did hit the target.  So I felt much better.
Gun season opens this weekend.  I am so excited!

Remember our little wood heater?  Remember it was a freebie? 
Well it has never been hooked up and checked out.
But it is ready to go now! 
We will be warm this winter while we are there. 
At home we have 2 gas fireplaces and I miss that smell of the wood fire.
Every time we go to the Hilton we do a little bit to improve the place.  I just can't tell you how much I love this little place.
I just feel so peaceful and relaxed there.
******************************
Did I tell you that the guy that worked on our wood heater turned the power off on our refrigerator? It was an accident so we didn't say anything but it was aggravating. 
The refrig part doesn't cool too good, but the freezer is great.  In fact we are getting another refrig to take down there soon. Anyway, I had lots of stuff in the freezer.  It all ruined.  So that is the first thing we had to do when we got there.  We had meat, vegetables, chocolate pie, cookies and a lot more goodies that we just had to throw away.  Once we get to the Hilton we very seldom leave.  In fact it is hard to leave that place.  Anyway we had to go to the store and replace the food that we had lost.  But it didn't ruin our trip.  We just did what we had to do and enjoyed the rest of the weekend. 
 I can't wait until we go back!
