Running Up and Down the Mountain

Sounds like impressive amounts of training, right!  Ok a little clarification--running up and down the mountain in a vehicle.  I really didn't need more projects, but I needed a new place to park mountain bikes (that's my excuse anyway).  The other cabin project seems to be on interminable hold getting approvals from the Forest Service and this one is close to home and to Kerri, let's see what other reasons I can think of to justify it. We could probably put it on Airbnb when we get all the work done, but I think it'll get a lot of use.

First project, new electrical panel box, or I should say obtaining the permit for the box.  I'm not sure how long that will take.  The propane man is coming tomorrow to do the safety inspection and then the next project will be to get off of propane and run the natural gas to the street.  The kitchen is "quaint", I actually kinda like it, it has a lot of character, but will be on the to do list as it's really the best place to put a washer and dryer which means redoing the pantry...which means redoing all of the cabinets, which means appliances and countertops too.  When the kids were little one of my favorite children's books was "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie".  I think it's really an adult book and seems to sum up all those messy projects that just lead to an explosion of more projects. The bathroom has really low countertops that everyone who has seen it has pointed out, funny I think they're just right.

This also has magically answered the question I asked right before all of this Covid mess--Ikon or Epic, Ikon it is.  Lets hope Alterra resorts open this year.  Lets hope everything opens and soon.

When you don't go to the 5:00am class because you need the sleep.  When you can't sleep.....
