Portazo Island Entry #13

After a couple of days of clearing out the wood and underbrush in the area, I was beginning to realize just how large of a task this was. So I decided to try a much faster approach.





The wood and underbrush was really wet so it took a lot of effort to get the fires going and to keep them going. After I got the fires going I built a boat and set off for the island I saw off in the distance days before. I needed to get some more unique types of wood to bring back to the island, as well as some flowers co I could make some dyes and start colouring things.



As I sailed across the ocean, I started to do some thinking. I had been on that island for weeks and was still not able to get much rebuilding done. I reached the other island and quickly gather a few new types of trees and returned the island. I planted a few saplings and started to lay out the foundation for the next building on the island.



I figured the best way to start bringing people to the island would be to build a lighthouse so the island would be visible even at night. After the foundation was laid I gathered up some fence and marked out a small area where I could keep some sheep. I took some wheat and lead the sheep into the small pen and dyed a few bright red.



As night fell I began to wonder when people might begin to arrive. And then I remembered the eggs I had found earlier. I had been so busy trying to survive on this island I had forgotten about these strange eggs. I decided that I needed to check on them soon. The next day I began construction on a new house so that when the time came, there would be room for the first testificate to move in.
