Too wet to work outside so most of the day is spend cleaning and organizing the cabin interior.

My Grandmother had that same white and blue coffee pot when I was a kid in the 70s, its amazing what you remember for no reason.

[@jimmyd8206]

It must have been a popular design, as I certainly remember ours from the 1970's.

[@vonnieskitchenmartinsshack5544]

Actually we must own about 5 of them! We put 2 on the wood stove as humidifiers in the winter. I pick mine up at Goodwill. They are rock solid and give me flashbacks, too. The wife

[@johnkrim8377]

We have three of them, love brewed coffee, only trouble is when the cords go bad it's hard to find a good replacement.

Awesome Cabin

[@abbushcraft]

Thank you for sharing with us.

I bought a special order cargo trailer 14x7 with 5, 30 x15 windows and ramp back door . Built a wall in the back so you open the ramp door use it as a patio and I built a wall across the back with a screen wooden screen door and a hard door and built the inside like a log cabin with snowshoes on the wall ,coonskin cap,a old sleigh and other things . I feel like this guy does when hes in his cabin and it's a great feeling. Also a memory foam mattress with hand made quilts ,small 2 door refrigerator freezer ,sink ,leather loveseat with a hand built sleigh coffee table.

Does my heart good to see your using the ole Porcelain pots and pans; plus the Corning ware. Keep up the great Vid's & Stories. Thanks

[@retiredyeti5555]

Amazing how a small space can get disheveled in short order, isn't it? I am always working at keeping my den/guest room from becoming a hoarders' hell, but we have a tendency to stick stuff in here that we don't have a place for immediately. Usually stuff we don't want to take down to the basement right away. At least now the bed can be used as a bed! That was a nice little jaunt you took! Stay safe.

Morning, Martin... I'm imagining the quality time spent with Our Creator there. Wow... Thanks so much for sharing these wonderful episodes of your times there at The Cabin...

[@judithneeley5229]

Phooey! No bath shots. Just kidding. In my younger years, I was in Girl Scouts, and we went camping all time time, and always in the rain (Pacific NW). Your videos take me back in time. You are so fortunate to have that cabin and the ability to keep it well maintained and visit often. Thanks for sharing with us.

[@TheNorthwoodsman1]

I have camped in the rain a lot and really appreciate a wood stove and a roof.

[@Brokenbones2]

thanks for taking the time to make the videos...I find a grin on my face for every minute I watch! best regards from Ohio!

[@KG-xt4oq]

I didn't think it was possible. I thought I had watched every one of your cabin videos...heck, I've watched some 3, 4, even 5 times by now. Usually when I rewatch one, there's one particular thing that happens during the video (either something you do or say) that cues me in and reaffirms that I have indeed watched it before. Didn't have that happen with this one; don't know how I missed it. I did move during the 2nd half of July in 2019 (shortly after my father passed), but I know I've watched the videos that were uploaded just prior to and right after this one... At any rate, it was a nice surprise...kinda like having a 'bonus' video, albeit from a couple years ago...lol.

[@TheNorthwoodsman1]

And for some reason this video really had a lot more views than the others.

[@frenchiedekent8572]

Nice to see you using & washing plates and dishes not those disposable crapy plastic/paper/styrofoam 👍 Your cabin is so tranquil, peaceful and cosy ❤

Wow, I just may have to steal the foil pouch stuffing/dressing tip. I love my dressing too. My mother used to make it outside the bird, and it was good, but just not the same.

[@TheNorthwoodsman1]

My wife learned it from me but says she puts the foil in the bag before putting in the bird.

Aha! That's the first time I recall seeing the space above the door. Now I see where the cups are mounted. I had commented on another episode asking about the location, thinking they were on the opposite wall. I'm learning!

[@TheNorthwoodsman1]

Might need another in depth tour of the inside of the cabin.

[@mrdfoutz]

@@TheNorthwoodsman1 I'm sure we'd all enjoy that!

[@juliegoeres5868]

You do Cinderella duties and decorating with a grand northern flare.. just need some plaid window treatments... as a kid we played cards tables of people (dirty neighbor) when it rained in Minnesota..at a really old and big fishing resort (gone with the exception of one or two buildings birch trees gone too) during Muskegon season when the fish were bigger than me... a lot of the boats were launches old Chris crafts boats inboards. That had a. deep bubbling sound...

[@cgriggsiv]

Good morning Martin the cabin is looking good like the rack for the shotgun and yes I agree water is at a premium and right now you have some to spare

[@jeanetteschulthe1andOnly]

Same for me Martin, the chicken/turkey is just a technicality...love stuffing. I make classic breadcubes from bread, enough butter to saute 3 celery and 3/4 medium/lg onion, broth, egg, 1 tsp poultry seasoning, salt and pepper. In the bird or setting just outside...I like the toasted stuffing too and gravy. Now I am going to have to get that out of the freezer... :)

[@utbsks5078]

Isn't it amazing when water is not readily available what a valuable commodity it becomes. At our camp, dish rinse water became the water you used in the pail by the door to rinse off your sandy feet before coming in. Great post Martin...you always make me think.

[@TheNorthwoodsman1]

My rinse water if often left on the counter and used to wash my hands and then a little sanitizer.

[@Zorbawon]

Your camp reminds me of where my family would stay when we vacationed in Maine. I loved it! Over the years it has changed quite a bit and now has all the comforts of home but it has lost its appeal. Don’t change a thing with you camp...........it is perfect!

[@teresahuckabee6879]

YOU ought to get a hand pump well an a out side tub / out door shower room.

No neighbors so if it is warm enough I just take a sponge bath out in the yard.

[@ralphmollard5474]

My best friend and I grew up together, our wifes were also best friends who grew up together. Two years ago they and their daughter were planning a trip to Ireland but his wife passed away unexpectedly . One night when we went out to dinner he ask my wife and I if we would go with him and his daughter on the Ireland trip. His family came from Ireland . He had done some research on the Jameson 's and named some of the family. It was sort neat to go to place and see pictures of the people he talked about. Went to a castle that was owned by three Jameson sisters and to the place where whiskey was made.......and none of us drink. It's such a lovely country and a great trip.

[@darrengarlough5121]

[@larrykramer6057]

I would load it, chamber empty. It would be nice to have coffee before facing an emergency, but usually not possible.

Yes, shells in the tube is okay. Most shotguns it is not a good idea to have one in the chamber. Or keep them in a stock sock.
