The morning after ... continued







The brunt of the storm actually went around us. We live on a plateau and I’m not sure if that has anything to do with it but since we moved here most of the predicted weather seems to bypass our area.

We seem to get the beauty without the impact.

That being said we’ll probably get a blizzard/tornado/hurricane/ice storm/drought/ flood/solar eclipse/earthquake combo next week because I opened my big mouth.

Anyone have the number to FEMA?




The morning after ... continued








The morning after ...


with everything encased in ice.

She's got some great Gun Control


Great desk


Echo and his chain saw









Our first burn pile


With clearing comes lots of tree debris.

What to do with it?

Burn it.








Cedar burns real quick and real hot.

The Bathroom … literally - Phase 1


I started construction this past week on what will be the bathing room. Being that our trailer is a construction site trailer and not a mobile home it only came with a half bath (toilet and a sink). The new room is two feet shorter than a standard bathroom and at 5’ x 5’ it will only house a 5’ tub and an additional toilet which will be installed after the walls are finished and painted.

Things are coming together, not as fast as we would hope but they are coming together.

Sorry about the photos, I don’t have the right lens to do the job justice but you can see the progress.

Hot showers in our future
