Pål var skredder og bonde. Kjøpte det som i dag er Hol pensjonat i 1896 og dreiv som skreddar her. Pål utvida bygnaden med veranda i 1904, bygde attåt på nordsida og snudde mønet slik han står i dag. Huset vart måla kvitt, og han leigde ut til Hol sparebank frå 1905 og til den oppattstarta Hol spareforening frå 1909 (seinare handelslaget). Banken hadde to rom i andre etasje og Pål Slettemoen skulle i følgje avtalen . Leiga vart sett til 60 kr året.

Pål tok etter kvart til som bureisar på vestsida av Holsfjorden, noverande Vestvang. Han kjøpte husmannsplassen Nedremyrsslåtta og etter kvart fleire mindre område. Fram til 1919 rodde han foret heim til Høgset (Hol pensjonat) der han også bygd fjøs og stallar med trev – dei som står her i dag. Den store bygnaden husa også andre gjeremål. Televerkets hadde tilhaldsstad her frå 22. juni 1910. Her har også vore skreddarverkstad, tannlegekontor, snikkarverkstad, vevskule og doktorkontor.

Pål samla og bygde opp Vestvang som ny gård fra 1906 til han tok med seg huslyden og flytta dit i 1919. Da sønnen Sigurd tok over i 1939 hadde Pål på Storemyr lagt 30 mål myr- og skogmark under kultur, tatt cirka 2000 meter steinsette veiter og køyrt bort i skogkanten eller på fjorden mange tusen lass stein. Heile nybrotet var på 44 mål, og det i ei tid då stubbebrytaren var einaste mekaniske hjelpemidlet. Han fekk Ny Jords diplom.

Pål selde Vestvang til sønene Botolf og Sigurd i 1939, og Botolf fekk øvre delen, Granum, som er delvis samansett av dei tidlegare plassane Nedremyrslåtta, Løingslåttaog Nedre Sindrolsslåtta. Det eldste bustadhuset der er bygd i 1940 og uthusbygnaden i 1946 på den gamle Løingslåttatomta.
