Jim stayed for an additional 2 weeks to help out with cabin projects. For the first week, I planned bought and cooked all the food so that everyone could just focus on the work. It was so much fun! Got a lot of electrical done. Built some walls upstairs, planned what to do in the bathrooms.

1 July
2 July I helped Steve a bit with getting running water in our trailer. Had leaks and there are still small issues but we did get it running!
4 July bunch of people came up
Had grilled stuff and corn on the cob for lunch
Then Steve cooked a paella for dinner
First time over a fire up at the cabin
Ken helped with getting the fire to the right temp
It was delicious!!! Do it again!!
5 July Adding drawings to the floor
Chillin
Steve and I fixed the shade canopy over the swing
6 July The annoying loud open scary stairs we have been living with
The incredibly beautiful new stairs
The crew that made it happen. Thanks Ken for spearheading it!
16 July. I put up a shower curtain. Yay! I also helped with several failed attempts at a solar shower pulley system. Boo!
11 Aug. I finally made it back up here to do some post-surgery recovery. Steve did all the packing, loading, and unloading and Teri brought and cooked the food 😊
This is what I mean
Nature, the great healer
13-14 august Got the shower ready
Protecting my incision
Worked great!
Feel like a million bucks 😊
After days of rain, the sun finally came out and we brought out the new swing cushions that Anne bought. They’re perfect!
😊💚
Recuperating in nature is the best!
1-2 Sept
Putting up new solar panels takes a village
Bought a recumbent bike and built it up there so that I have access to good knee exercise
Working on the basement! Teri and Steve de-pack ratted it and put wire mesh down to keep them out (sawyer and max helped with that) Crazy big project!
I was up early anyway so I sat out and enjoyed the sunrise
5-10 Oct
Yay! First time post surgery in a hammock!
Steve and I secured the inverter to the wall
I built these benches 😊
This is me naked taking my first hit shower in the shower house
25-26 Oct
Purty sunset
I was hoping for northern lights. Good solar storms the night before and the night after but not that night. Darn it!
Another beautiful morning!
26-27 Oct. Built a snow gauge that Steve pointed a camera at so we can see from down here the snow level up there
Secured with loop of duct tape inside out around the tree (so it doesn’t hurt it) twine wrapped around that and then secured with duct tape going the normal way (so rodents don’t chew it). I really should be an engineer haha
