Great job on the ramp, it'll be a game changer over the winter. What brand are your studded winter boots?

I'm trying to catch up lol, They are Baffin polar proven to fall on your face:: But not if you get the studded brand lol !

Hi Don! You've likely got the best system for putting wood in. With the wood closet directly accessible to the outdoors and ramps for the machines for even easier access. I've had 4 wheelers and 3 wheelers over the years and one thing i think they all should have is tubes in the tires. So if a tire goes flat theres no guessing theres a hole . Tubeless could be leaking around the rim or stem or hole. Always nice to visit the folks. My dad calls around 3 times a week and tells me pretty much the same things in pretty much the same order. Lol. He talks to so many people he forgets what he told each person. I find it funny and annoying at the same time. But someday im sure i will miss it. Have a good day

Yes I have yet to see another like it ! A lot of thought goes in to a build when you have back injuries & don't know how long I will be able to do this, But everything I do I just try to make work a little better for me to be able to stay here longer :) I agree tubeless for ATV's suck, Ya at 88 my Mom is as sharp as a whip & still gets around pretty good :) Thanks for the comment

Hi Don. Good update video. Glad the Bluetti working for ya. Really impressed with your new wider ramp to get the tub trailer and wood to your wood room. That wood room is a gamechanger for sure. What a great idea. Of all the channels i watch and cabin build sites, nobody other than you have thought to include a wood room on their cabin. It just makes so much sense to do that. Well done. Colder and jce are not a good mix. Slips and falls on ice are the leaking cause of muscle strains and broken bones. Maybe a set of tire chains on your boots. LOL Thanks for the visit, Don. I'm glad alls OK

Thanks Glen Yes was nice meeting you, Maybe a longer visit next time :) Yes I made a big one inside my last house but you had to go in the door & hold it open letting cold in so this way that don't happen :) I think I have a few one of a kind things at my cabin lol ! Thanks for the comment

Yes crazy summer ! Had it all ripped apart so I could do all that digging, But it all new & stronger done just before the frost hits hard :) Thanks for watching

Howdy Don- the board and batten siding looks great on your house. I really like the idea of the ramp up to the wood storage room. I’ve used a wheel barrow for years, but then, we don’t have to use as much wood as you do. Looks like ol man winter is just about upon you up there. We finally got some rain so we can do some burning. Glad you got to go see your Mom before bad weather rolls in. Take care and God bless

Thanks my friend it's been a crazy fall but now that the wood box is full, the wood stove is warm & the days are getting shorter it's time to enjoy some of the fruits of my labour. :) Have a great week ahead"

The green, white, and wood look great together on the house. I drilled some holes in my boots and shot tire studs in, and they work pretty well.

Yup it's a 10hr drive, After Dad past Mom lived with me for a year & a half but she needed more help than I could give so she went down there to my sisters for a few months then got her in the lodge, She has friends & lots of family down there, Just me & one granddaughter up in this area, She says she is very happy she made the move :) Thanks for the comment

Good one Don. Snazzy👍🏻. Have not heard that word in a while. 🤭. Ya she’s lookin great. Do you get any charging on a cloudy day ? Great idea on the ramp for the firewood. I’m sitting in my garage with the wood stove on and one of my kerosene lamps burning watching videos. 🤭. Still some daylight yet. Have a great week, 👋👋 great you could see your mother. Mines been gone for 22 years now.

Thanks Noel :) If it's cloudy but not snow or rain pretty much no solar, If it's a little higher cloud I might get 50-150w in full sun 1150w is my max input, Yesterday & today enough sun to bring me back to full from 68%, But we will probably have to start running gen for 2-1/2 hrs every 3rd day, but I do have another bank & power station I could use :) Thanks for the comment
