June Updates

Thought I'd log some of the happens at the cabin in the last month:


  • Cory (the electrician) installed new floor plates on our floor outlets (in order for us to pass inspection)
  • We passed our final inspection and received our certificate of occupancy (this happened late May). Yeah!
  • We purchased pet protectors for the screen doors. They have been installed.
  • The marmot has found a way into our foundation. We purchased a grate for it. It still needs to be installed.
  • New screen has been purchased for the screens with holes. We now need to install the new pieces.
  • We hung string from the ceiling fans so they can be adjusted without a ladder.
  • A new bbq has been purchased and brought to the cabin.
  • Some water was discovered in the closet under the stairs. Getty came up and fixed it.
  • The outside faucets were leaking. Getty discovered that they probably froze over the winter. He is in the process of fixing them. He may not be able to fully access the broken pipe. In which case we may need to make those non-functioning until we build a crawl space access in the future. He is getting some additional parts and will keep us updated on his progress.
  • The loft outlets were not working. Cory came up to investigate. He replaced the breaker and they seem to be working fine now.
  • We reported a septic tank smell. I have not heard back from Rick. But Getty suggested that we pour water in the washer and dryer pipes every time we go up there. This will block the smell from entering the cabin.
  • Ali and my dad washed all of the cabin windows.
  • Scrub cleaned the freezer and refrigerator.

I think that's all for now.

  1. The weekend of June 12th was rainy and scrumptious. Owen and a his buddy Eric filled some Ranch hours with Matt and Emily. We had a great time in and out of the rain.
    *the upstairs loft outlets were not working still
    *Owen put up a marmot grate, and Woolseys Dog Shakey terrorized the marmot for several hours.
    *I want to ask how to blog on the blog...but for now, a comment on June...

    I got confused cause of the marmot grate thing. I thought he got that on there?
