  1. The Nenana River to the East The house is on the river North of the highway The cabin is about a half mile from the river 3 miles South of the highway
  2. Slowly We’re really in no hurry, so I’m taking my time to get it done right Mrs. Moose wants hardwood floors. I’ve never attempted anything like that, so I’m learning as I go Saving the bathroom for last. It only has a shower stall. The Mrs. wants a tub. Gotta demo everything , frame the tub in and tie it into the plumbing. Then tile everything. I’ve never laid tile before either so I’ll learn. Plus we’re dealing with yet another wildfire in the neighborhood right now. The Bear Creek fire if anyone is interested. About a mile away from both the cabin and the house. Luckily still on the other side of the river
  3. Nope. Just an iPhone. Bear hanging out on the side of the highway doing bear things. Fairly uncommon to catch them like that, but you see them from time to time.
  4. I admit I’m uniquely prepared for what’s coming It wasn’t the driving force in my quest for a simpler existence, but it’s always been in the background
  5. We will still have our circuses It’s how they’ve controlled the masses for centuries Nothing is new
  6. Bingo I’m ready to watch it all burn down and hopefully make it to see what becomes of the ashes
  7. I don’t want to get all Brisket up in here, but that is what it is gonna take. The die has been cast. The only way we’re getting out of this is with the price of blood. I’d rather it come sooner rather than later.
  8. Exercise your Second Amendment rights.
  9. It’s not a big house…1700 sq ft, one bedroom, one bath. Built in 1989. One owner, everything was original. We gutted the inside. Installed a new septic system, replaced all plumbing with pex, installed a filter and water softener. New pressure tank and hot water heater. New cabinets and countertops, all new electrical and plumbing fixtures. New flooring throughout. All new appliances. It will get a new metal roof and new deck this summer. It needs new exterior paint. The previous owner replaced the boiler system 2 winters ago. Logistics can be a bitch. Fairbanks is 80 miles away, so you make sure your lists are up to date.
  10. My legacy will be the shitstick story 😂 Mainly outside shitter. We still live at the cabin. After 15 years of it, I prefer that lifestyle. My wife does too. Having our own private amenities have been very nice as I approach my mid 50’s though. A regular shower is a treat that most of us take for granted. Plus, we’re renovating it ourselves and we work at stoners pace. My wife is having fun decorating. I’m in the process of staining and sealing all the crown molding she decided on. The cabin is the cabin. Not much she can do with a 400 sq ft clubhouse.
  11. Nah, not about me. Appreciate the check in though. I’ve regressed to full on lurker mode. Life happens and I needed a break. My father died (not a big loss, he was an asshole of the highest order). We bought a house on 15 acres about 3 miles from the cabin and I’ve been immersed in renovating. I think it would have been easier to just build new. Mom is having some health issues back in Texas and we’re prepping for her possibly having to move up here so we can care for her on a daily basis. We promised her she would never be in an institution. It’s been nice having a place of our own to do laundry, take showers, and haul water to the cabin. Neither of us want to live there, so we are going to Air BnB it until we need it for either Mom or ourselves.
