Nice cabin Bob. Pretty remarkable that temps were 60 degrees when you woke up, with no insulation. I assume you are able to drive to...

Nice cabin, I enjoyed the pics and story. That wood stove seems very efficient, the insulation will make a big difference in firewood...

Yesterday it was bitter cold ... too cold for my old dog Jake. He is 11 and showing his age. So my pup Max ( 16 months ) and I hiked to...
