Cabin Project

Over Memorial Day Weekend, Bryce and I went up to my aunt's cabin to survey it's condition and start cleaning it up. We've made it our summer project to try and get that place into a state of being pleasant to visit and a desirable place to relax for the weekend...we'll see how that goes...since it's quite a piece of work...

We went up friday evening and arrived around 8pm. Bryce immediately got to cutting wood so we would have a fire. We didn't really need the fire for heat since it was a very nice temperature even at night. We needed it more for protection from bugs. The misquitos were vicious and annoying and woke us up at 5:30 in the morning...not pleasant.
We didn't actually stay up there very long, just friday night and then we left around 3pm saturday afternoon. We got plenty of work done though. we were just sick of sleeping on the floor. I have a feeling that we'll just spend one night up there until we can actually feel okay about leaving a mattress there. Anyway, I have lots of before and after pictures for your viewing pleasure. I'll update this blog as we get more work done. good times.























So yeah, all that stuff in the "Before" Pictures was shoved into either the storage area or the shed in the back. Most of it actually isn't ours so I have to wait and get the go ahead before we can throw it all in the dumpster like I want to...

Lots of work to go but I love it up there so much!
