Lions VS Walls...

So we had a slow and not very productive day today. As we got busy building the cabin walls we had to stop for about an hour and try to chase of a Mountain Lion. We were just working away when all of the sudden all you could smell in the air was cat urine and dirty socks. (that is what they smell like) So we got the kids away and took the guns up the hill but of course found nothing (except huge paw prints) about 20 feet from where are building the cabin. So we went inside for a little while hoping it would go away. About half hour or so later we went back out and went back to work and then there was the smell again. SO we decided to burn a fire and turned on the radio trying to make more noise but of course that only works so well. So we gave up for a little while, then we decided to hell with the dam cat and went back to work on the walls again. It circled around for a little while but I think it got bored and wondered off finally for a bit. Hopefully we get more done tomorrow. I refuse to let the cat win again tomorrow. I think we really need to clear some more of this property so nothing can sneak up on us. Its kinda scary. The paw prints were the size of my entire hand. OMG...
