There are always so many hurdles for me to jump working on this cabin - like so many things that need doing, days and hours of stuff towards the build, without setting foot on the cabin site itself. I am feeling the pressure to get this cabin closer to being closed in as the seasons are changing, and my life is increasingly busy aside from this cabin build. I am climbing the steep part of the mountain right now, so I've gotta just keep my head up and plug away.
This video is a perfect example of nearly an entire day spent working towards the rafter install (again), but not another rafter up. But, it is what it is, and I just plug away at whatever needs to be done at the time.
I had Lenny join me for the weekend, which was a great bonding experience for him and I. He is a very special guy. 💝
For those of you who hate me talking too much - this may not be the video for you. But for those of you who enjoy listening to a talking gerbil, then perhaps you'll enjoy this one 😊😉
As I move up on the structure, filming the work is getting harder, which is why I often find it easier to take a break and come down to explain what I'm doing/what I've done/what I'm going to do. Its maybe not ideal, but it is what safest for me working up high, and working alone in the middle of nowhere (there is no cell/internet on this land).
As I say in the video, this is day one of two days out there - It's easiest for me to manage the footage for editing and keeps the video length down if I separate the days. Plus, it de-clutters my brain and my SD card 😊.
As always, thanks so much for all your love and support, and lovely comments. I hope you are all doing well!
~ your favorite talking gerbil,
