It's About Time!

It has been over a year since I have posted here. So much has happened in that time period. I will try to keep it brief and then hopefully add more entries in the coming months.
 
Both Steve and I went on major vacations during the winter, Steve to Bhutan and myself to Kenya. Of course not much work gets done on the cabin during the winter...at least until the cabin is totally enclosed. We have done many things on the cabin, but the major work we have been doing is working on the electricity. Once again, I have to hand it to Steve for knowing what to do. If he doesn't know the answer, he has a handy manual to help him along. We are almost to the point of getting our next inspection...rough in of the electrical and plumbing work. It will be so nice to finally have this part of the cabin finished so that we can have electricity other than from an extension cord that is run from the power pole outside. That, and having a usable bathroom will be heaven. Of course, we always have to have something that stalls us. I recently had my foot run over by a car when crossing a street on my mail route. A bone was broken and I am on crutches. So, once again, guess who all the work falls on...Steve. We are so close to the inspection part however, that hopefully there will not be too big of a burden on Steve.
 
We have had many a good time at The Drunken Bear since the last posting. Whenever I have a long weekend off from work we tend to have people join us and it is always fun to hang out in the outdoors. Barbecues, games, swimming, campfire banter...and of course the event of keeping up with the name we have chosen for our little getaway. When you are away from television, traffic, and the hustle and bustle of city living, it is always so relaxing.
 
There will be more pictures posted than there is commentary, but as is said, "Pictures say a thousand words". Again, I will try to keep this blog updated on a more regular basis.

Hey Michael & Steve,

We always have a great time coming out to Index, thanks for all the fun and memories each time. By now I bet that inspection is scheduled!
