And the work continues..........

Harvey, John, David, April and I spent the weekend up north working on the cabin. Saturday the guys wired the cabin in preparation for solar power. Not fully understanding how it works, the only way I know how to describe it is that we now have “electric” by way of a car type battery through the use of an inverter. Is this correct guys? Ok, stop your laughing……I did my best to explain it.  I am completely in awe of what the guys did! After getting it set up, we went out to “celebrate” another project done on our cabin………and an awesome project it was to say the least. When we returned back at the cabin we turned on the inside overhead light with the use of a remote, as we drove up to the cabin. It was the most weirdest, wonderful thing in the whole world……….to see a light come on inside the cabin that has only been lit by  propane ..…….and that was turned on by remote control yet!!!

Today the guys finished installing the insulation up in the loft and covered it with plastic. So except for a couple small areas downstairs where they had to remove a small portion of insulation to install the breaker box and the wall receptacles, the insulation work is finished, yay!!! We are now getting excited over the possibility of covering the walls and ceiling with finished plywood or nice paneling that we can live with, is suitable for our home away from home, yet hopefully is fairly inexpensive.

April and I did our best to help out by sweeping, washing some stuff, straightening things out and getting rid of junk, handing things to the guys, carry stuff and trying our best to help where needed.

The solar panels have been ordered and should be in some time this coming week. Hopefully the weather will cooperate and the guys will be able to install them next weekend. I couldn’t ask for a better way to celebrate my 70^th birthday.
