Beautiful Wood Stove Stonework, New Lights, Skirting, Indoor Shower - OFF GRID CABIN PROGRESS

This was a weekend of progress. Some of our little projects at the cabin feel like they take forever. But then, all at once, they are complete. Right now we are in the depths of a few long-term projects in the cabin build. Right now we are trying our best to be motivated and complete these things before winter.
I opened up in this video regarding my thoughts about the cabin and memories we have had there. Thanks for coming along for the ride. :)
I have been having fun with the ideas for the outdoor shower. This is just the start of the ideas for this piece of the cabin. It feels good to build pieces of our tiny space in the woods.
Slowly but surely we are looking to turn to off-the-grid solutions for power and waste. We would like to grow as composters and gardeners. For now though, our focus is still on the cabin building process. Thank you for joining us.
I camp and hike in and around the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. I'm also building and enjoying an off- grid cabin in the woods with my partner Cory and the kiddos Nora and Ethan! I love sharing the journey with you!
Thank you for supporting our channel :) :)

[@robertbarnett3409]

[@heatherlaird-mcleod3271]

Cabin has come a long way since I first started watching.🇦🇺

[@jodimiddendorf]

It is fun to look back at past videos and watch the progress slowly unfold.

[@raylucas4281]

Could be wrong but i think sweet baby Ray's is also Canadian....I use it always as my name is Ray

[@peggydover5382]

It’s looking great

[@janebello761]

Watching here in the Philippines ❤

[@jodimiddendorf]

Hello!

[@pambarab5506]

Well, it doesn't get any better than free granite! SCORE for the home team! The lights in the closet and bathroom and the skirting are sorta the unsung heroes. They're not glamorous but boy! They sure are useful! And you're going to love the rain shower head! It's looking great!

[@jodimiddendorf]

Yes! Some of our cabin windows were free, granite and stone slabs for free, a dresser we had in storage and weren’t using, and eventually we will be using my old futon from college as the couch in the cabin. We are trying to keep the cabin on a budget. Eventually we would like to break it down and share how much we spent building it! It’s true, the lights, skirting, and all of the trim we need to put up are all a bit boring… but super necessary. Thanks for the kind words!

[@rcnmasterplumber]

First Of All I love You Guys The Way YA Work Together, Im Actually Looking To To Buy A Raw Land As Well, One Thing For Sure After Watching So Many Videos The Best Way To Make The Base For Wood Stove Is Put in A Platform Is Building the Platform With 2x3/s Fill With Sand Or Loos Dirt As Barrier Insulation. Than Make A Surrounding Mold 2" Higher Than The 2x3's 1" Gap and Pour Colored cement Mix And That Will Be Less Headach, Pretty And Simple

[@jodimiddendorf]

That’s an interesting way to do it!

[@peggypaplauskas161]

Love your videos Jodi, thanks for all your hard work in sharing 💕🌹😉

[@jodimiddendorf]

Thank you! I really like putting these videos together. Even if it takes up a ton of my time 😂

[@janetgray8737]

Your cabin is coming along very nicely. Little by little you are getting things done.

[@jodimiddendorf]

Thank you! Lately the progress feels slow, but we have so many little things that need to be complete so we can really enjoy the cabin ☺️

[@janetgray8737]

Jodi, you are getting there. When you work on a project whenever you can carve out a bit of time, it just takes longer. But when it is done, you will enjoy it so much more. It will be so worth it.

[@eugeneommundsen1767]

Your Cabin looks great.

[@jodimiddendorf]

Thank you!

[@ilonakatalindako-tolman5545]

What a nice summer moment and the fire place area being finalized ❤

[@jodimiddendorf]

Thank you! We are excited to put the stove back in place and have it be all beautiful!

[@HugsXO]

Oh my gosh, your cabin is looking so great. I can't believe how much progress you have made. Wishing you both well.

[@jodimiddendorf]

Thank you so much!

[@sillyrednewby]

Blueberry wildrice brats!?? As a Wisconsinite I must object! LOL You can't mess with brats! Watching your progress on the cabin is so fun. :) Looking really good! Also--do you guys talk about how you met on any videos? You're such a sweet couple and I'd love to know your story.

[@jodimiddendorf]

You must try them! We have a local meat processor who makes a zillion different flavors. They even have gummy bear brats. We haven’t tried those yet. Maybe we will share how we met someday. It’s honestly a cute story ☺️☺️

[@peperetuque7744]

[@karengladys2011]

Love all the improvements you have made to the cabin! 😊 one step at a time , it will get done! You both work good together, you are making it yours! ❤️💙

[@jodimiddendorf]

Thanks so much! 😊 it feels so good to progress even if it is a whole process!

[@5heinens]

So. I know you two are "creating content", but you sure do a great jon of recording all your work and adventures without it feeling scripted. I know you must have some sort of scripting or story-lining, but you are doing a great job of just being you!

[@coryzwilling7889]

Sorry to disappoint but no script or storyline, just working

[@jodimiddendorf]

Thank you so much! We really do just record what we are doing and then I put it all together and include our thoughts. 😁😁

[@davidsmathers5621]

You guys need to build a shed for your firewood

[@jodimiddendorf]

Yes we do!

[@markhellwig1448]

✌❤❤🤗

[@kellylinkous8120]

Where did you get your lights?😀

[@jodimiddendorf]

Amazon. We couldn't find anything that would work well at our local hardware stores, Home Depot, Menards, etc. so we took a gamble with a random light from a random brand on amazon and loved it. amzn.to/3s0vLQ9

[@waynemoureau5154]

Your cabin needs a proper kitchen.

[@jodimiddendorf]

Agreed. We are waiting to build a kitchen space until the floor boards are in. Right now we are just making it work 😊

[@SherriP]

Everyone who thinks or feels God doesn't care, is indifferent and or mean etc …. Why is the world as it is, evil everywhere… where is God and His faithfulness… God does judge sin which is evil and if people don't stop sinning they will die for that disobedience,that sin. When God said if you take from that tree you will die He was saying if you disobey, you sin, I will punish that sin because God does punish it, sickness, demons and death. And if you keep sinning I will punish you to the point of death, is that punishment. Sickness is a consequence of sin and it is a judgement God makes upon the people for their sin. All sickness takes its toll on the body and will result in death unless you stop sinning and that brings a reward from God for the righteous decision to stop sinning that brought that illness. Throughout scripture God tells us these things. God does love and there is mercy in His punishment too. He chastises those He loves. His wrath doesn't mean He doesn't love, it doesn't mean there is no mercy, it means He puts His law first and He obeys it first. He punished sin and then punishes sin and so forth and if someone doesn't stop sinning or sins more then that judgment is death just as He said, sin is death. Scripture says we are all responsible for working out our salvation with fear and trembling. Seek scripture, learn who He is and what He said to obey and do it. if you obey Him you live in blessings just like Deuteronomy 28 says and it also says disobedience is curses, that's sickness, demons possibly and again to continue in sin results in death. God told all the details, and paid for us to get out of sin and how we should live and when people don't live righteous then the world looks like it did in the days of Noah, violence, drunkenness and such lovers of self, pleasure and all sin and life apart from God, life in disobedience to God. Why should He bless sin? He punishes it then punishes sin more if someone keeps sinning. Is it tough people die from that choice they make, their sin and lack of seeking God to obey what He said, yes it hurts. How do you think God feels, He loved the world so much He gave His only begotten son and Yeshua died in agony for us to be out of that sin, taking God's wrath upon Himself so how do I think He feels, grieved so grieved but I know from scripture He always obeys what His word says, He never changes and that includes every word He said. Now Yeshua took God's wrath upon Himself for our sin Isaiah 53. We get peace with God and can come before Him to be heard and we get to be cleansed from our iniquities, sin. Just like the lamb sacrifices in the old testament Jesus was that for us a peace offering and forgiveness offering. We get freedom from that sinful past, from that sin and we get our healings because His stripes healed us from the consequences of sin. He gave us a way out. A way to start again out of that wrath. How loving is that God gave us His son who took God's wrath for us out of love. How loving just how loving is our God who made a way for us to be out of that wrath? Wrath we deserved by our sin and continued sin. But God so loved the world He gave us Yeshua. Yeshua gave His life to rise to life for us to give us new life. A new creation to begin again a new life, having been born again. Having received forgiveness for sin and a pardon from God's wrath, that very wrath you talk about. But God gave us a way out of His wrath when Yeshua our lamb paid for our sin. Again how loving is that our way out of God's wrath. Our new life. Our second chance to live rightly before our Holy righteous God our being born again to live right because God planned for us to not all receive His wrath yet His son for everyone, one for everyone and a way out, pardoned and free to live life righteous whole healed delivered, how loving oh so very loving that is. All that is in scripture too. Seek and find, learn who He is and obey and see more of it. Mark 4:24 the more you obey God the more He reveals to you, it means that. Matthew 6:33 live it daily and understand who He is and just how loving He always is and honestly how loved you are will be seen felt and KNOWN too. 💕 May you come to understand Him all your days seeking and finding and growing in the knowledge of God in Yeshua's name 💕
