We were able to take advantage of the rainy, wet days and get some inside projects done. We finished the interior boards on one wall.
We also made a lot of progress on the bathroom. We built cabinets; although, they still need to be stained, and we need to make doors. We also hooked up the water to the sink and put trim around the top of the boards. We finished the boards around the toilet area as well.
Also, for much appreciated privacy, we (Greg by himself) built a new door, and we put trim around the window and a curtain up.
We got a great deal on a couch and loveseat, and used the Chinook to get them out there. It is surprising sometimes what will fit in the boat. Fortunately, we had some great weather that weekend.
It sure is nice to have some creature comforts out at the cabin these days. Much better than sleeping in the shed, or in a tent under the loft. However, one or two nice touches make the rest of it look, well, not so good. Which is good reason to keep moving forward and try to make the whole thing look nice!
We took advantage of some sunny days and cleaned up around the place, burning scrap wood, brush, and garbage in general. We also cut and split a bunch of firewood. The old adage is true that cutting firewood warms you twice, but I think it is more like six or seven times - cut, haul, split, haul, stack, haul, burn. Do you ever wonder how many times you handled a single piece of wood?
Anyway, we were able to fill our wood shed for the very first time ever! Let's hope it gets us through next winter.
We also spent some time this winter working on Penny's and Rich's cabin. See their page - Lot 2 - Penny & Rich - to find out more.
