Before defecting to Canada, Mark (Tyler's friend from SD) stopped down for a visit. He and Tyler found quite a few things around the place to keep themselves occupied. Since Tyler had found a great way into the dog house just the day before Mark's visit, most of these things focused on getting him back to freedom.

First, Tyler and Mark picked up all the old wood and small pieces of scrap iron out of the horse pasture. Then, they went and bought an extra set of sawsall blades so they could tackle the large pieces of scrap iron. They even moved the generator out to the horse pasture to power the sawsall - Casper and Buster were thoroughly entertained.

With the pasture cleared, Tyler and Mark turned their attention to the garage. They sorted through everything that had been piled / thrown / stored in the garage since we moved. They even fixed the broken springs on the garage door so that it worked again!

As evening set in, they set all the scrap wood they'd collected on fire. As you can see, Mark had quite the bonfire going. He even through some scraps of copper wire onto the fire to show the cool color affects it made in the flames.
