Nice, when you haven't got to work against snow drifts and 4 feet of frost. :D ;)

The power company ran the underground lines. Now I need to get the phone company to answer the phone and bury the phone lines.

My well is in ! 405' at 8 gallons a minute. That'll do. They need to finish up and test the water.

I have a local contractor who is going to start installing the septic system in July.

There's been a lot going on that I can only step back and watch which is ok by me.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!

Retirement is an incredable thing. My laptop sits here lonely and quite neglected.
Since Im not sitting at a desk nearly as much I don't take the time to get on here like i should.

The lodge slowly churns on. Well, Septic and Power are in. Indoor plumbing is a wonderful thing. I am working on the basement only. I'll start on upstairs in the spring. I have a contractor putting in my HVAC. He's a well liked local guy and I'm glad to have him working in my house. He also ran all the plumbing downstairs.

The downstairs kitchen is in. This makes me really happy.

I'm working on the downstairs bathroom I have decided to use concrete stain on the floor. I'm using valspar and learning as I go.

When I get the bathroom done and a bunk room studded out I'll be able to stay here. I'm really looking forward to that.
