So its been a busy time, I’ve been making lots of progress on the cabin. Bathroom is about finished, floors are in, and dad and I began working on the kitchen cabinets. It’s really coming together, and there is definitely a light at the end of the tunnel. Maybe I’ll actually be living in there soon. I really can’t wait to get it finished up, and I’m ready for spring to come so I can do a bunch of yard work and make the place really look nice. All that’s left is the trim, wainscoting, kitchen cabinets, a little painting and a tad bit more work to do to the floor. Outside all I have to do is fix the yard, get the porch so the inspector approves it, and put the cedar shake siding on (I also have a short list of things to do after the inspector approves it for occupancy). Yea, sort of a long list but that should go quick if I get the time.
Today, finally, I started work with Joe on these two cottages on Tripp Lake that have been planned for over a year. It took forever to get the permits for these projects. The C.O.G. office is so slow (but I hear that they may be going out of business soon). It would be much better if they were gone. I can understand their purpose, but they slow down the progress of work around here. Our country has so much unemployment, you would think that our government would be trying to expedite the process of approving building and septic permits, instead of dragging them on for months or years. I guess thats what happens when people vote for big government. Government just gets in the way. But anyway, I should have a steady income for a while, maybe actually save some money up for a nice truck. And camp keeps getting closer and closer!! I’ve been counting down the days until I get to start working (which is usually the beginning of April!). Camp is always a blast, I don’t think I’ll ever be able to get away from that place.
I do have to do some investigating before I start working at camp tho. Story for another time..
