I used to be able to see the Milky Way from my front yard

Now?  There's enough light pollution in North Idaho that I can see the stars, most of them, but the galaxy is a lost cause.

The packs of coyotes are still here.  They're lighting off every night right now.  It's fun to listen to.

My brother and I have done 3+ cords of wood in two days.  We still have quite a bit of space to fill up, along with other chores that need to be done.  It's been a ball-buster of a week and we're only half through. 

More later.  Once I'm not working all day.
