Happy Holidays

Well...it has been some time since my last update!! We sure have gotten a lot done in the last few months! The cabin is almost completely sided and we finally were able to get all of the insulation in. The electrical inspector came out and we passed the inspection. Congratulations to my electrician!! I highly recommend him and he works cheap. The only stipulation is you have to be genetically related to him...and he has to have raised you from birth!!

We spent a lot of time in the fall doing some odds and ends and I was even able to shoot a nice doe in late gun season in the back corner of our property!

We look forward to lots of progress this spring, summer and fall!! Hope to see y'all out there!!



Here are two of my union fiberglass insulation installers on one of their "contractual breaks"
