    The photos of my food plot are still on my camera… (sorry) But picture a 1/2 acre of awesome looking corn, regular beans and forage beans directly in front of my bowstand…. Errr, I mean kids fort. The “fort” is 8×8′ on 6x6x16′ posts. Windows on all sides. Metal roofing to increase resale value… The floor of the top level sits about 13 feet off the ground. A trap door gets you inside from “the basement”, which is not yet finished. Eventually, it will have a few bunks and probably one “garage door” wall which you can prop open and enjoy the view from inside the blind… Errr, I mean fort.

    Also picture 150 yearling crab apple trees behind the beans… And behind that, will eventually be a 1/4 acre pond… Oh ya… That tree on the left side of the photo is a honeycrisp apple… Just in case the deer… Errrr, I mean, my boys get hungry when playing by the fort.

    Looks like a great place to me. We should have our fort completed next month. Still trying to decide how to get Dad into the thing though. Probably have to build steps.

    We built another one last yeat at a friends place… We put steps and a side door in that one for the same reason (ease of access for dads or younger kids).

    Really cool pic of your deer stand/fort! You and the kids should get plenty of use out of it with lots of great memories.
