Feb. 26th


Cabin was a bracing 20 degrees when we arrived. We delivered our woodstove and made tea on the gas stove. Refilled the squirrel feeder and sat around figuring out the stove for about an hour. We need a 45 degree pipe to connect to the outdoor chimney.

No snow on the roof, the 12 inches we got missed the area I guess.

Remodelling season is getting close!!!!

Feb. 13th play in the snow

Playing in the snow this weekend. Funny how going up north causes tension headaches.... or maybe it's something else triggering them. Who knows!!!


Hank helped decorate the snowman for the kids once they finished making him. We all took a nap/lunch break while the clothes dried out on the "close line".


Snow pile was about 4 feet deep and Hank was playing king of the hill. We had about 8 squirrels at the feeder and spent a bit of time just watching them fool around on the feeder.

Snowmeggeddon...



We made the trip up to make sure the cabin was ok after snowmegeddon 2011. After cleaning the roof at the in-laws we went over to work on the roof. About 24 inches of snow at the peak and tapered down to about 8 inches at the eaves. Scraped most of that off and went in for a hot tea.

Driveway is no longer 4x4 accessible, snow is piled up over 3 feet and packed in pretty good.
