Sauna Build Alone with My Dog in a Snowstorm | Bottling/Canning Meat over Fire

#sauna #logcabin #goldernretriever
I continue with the sauna build, slowed down by a snowstorm one day and frigid temperatures the next, forcing me to pile the logs on top of the sauna walls and build a fire underneath to thaw them out. My dog, Cali the Golden Retriever, is at my side as always, relentlessly retrieving her training bumper until she falls asleep in front of the fire in the cabin.
Inside the log cabin, I bottle (can) meat in a pressure canner on top of the wood-stove. I fry trout in cast iron on the woodstove and for breakfast, I continue my temporary ketogenic diet with a substantial meal of eggs, bacon and cheddar cheese fried in butter. To keep warm during the day while working on the log sauna, I place a cast iron pan on the fire inside the sauna under the tarp and logs and I heat up some leftover beef ribs and lamb shank in tomato sauce.

Canned beef was a treat growing up. It usually showed up in the kitchen about February when the fresh stuff was done. There were on average 7 to 9 people at our table so the common use would be two jars mixed into a bag of cooked macaroni with some bread (mom called it "bread of the day"). We never knew it was a cheap meal... in fact it was one of our favourites and it was always beef from our farm.... but now I'm putting an age on myself when I look back at memories over 30 years ago. My how things have changed. Love your videos with my morning coffee when I have the opportunity, thanks for sharing Shawn.

[@a.doling9886]

HillBillyVilly I have found that beef has changed since 30 years ago. Like you, we ate beef that was raised on our family farm which I loved...Now that I live in a big city, I buy my beef from the store and I can taste a huge difference. The store beef is usually cut wrong and tastes like plastic wrap. Yuk! My mom use to can the beef as well. She mixed it with baked beans, barbecue sauce and slowed cooked it for a few hours in the crook pot. My mom called it "Mom's Famous Fart Sauce." 😂 That was a very yummy meal unfortunately it made everyone in the house a little gassy. 😂

You made a outdoor kitchen a log home with out door restroom and now a sauna. You are a expert on movie making, photography, canoeing, hiking, camping, fishing , baking, and making furniture. I’m sure I left out quite a bit, domestically speaking. I’m thankful you took us on this journey with you! I hope it makes other men see the potential in a determined and hard working spirit.

Shawn your videos w/Cali working, as you build your castle in the woods, is an amazing theraphy for some of us. For me, I portray myself as being there as part of that picturesque, and fascinating, natural environment. The sounds of nature, speak to my mind with their peaceful accents, through the water running from the river, into the creeks. Birds chirping, and singing their mellow winter songs, gladdens my heart , as the sounds of the freezing, mighty winds, whistling, and howling, make the tree branches dance. Nature speaks peace to the mind of each human soul. Be well Shawn with your family and dear CALI.
