Shower stall almost ready!
Used treated lumber for the frame, and old tin roofing for the sides.
I have a few old doors and will make one of them fit.
Already have the propane water heater, so that's the next step.

Been awhile again.
It has been a really pretty fall and early winter at the cabin this year.
Spent a lot of time out there recently.
Yesterday I framed the outdoor shower and hope to get it done soon.
Early fall finished the new outhouse (composting).

New projects Update. Its been a while!
While I haven't posted in a while, I have been busy out at the cabin.
Built a graveled parking spot for an RV or car.
Had the whole road re-graveled and I spread gravel in the sheds.
And I put some down where we walk a lot.
A fun project was a raised cooking area, with areas for Dutch oven cooking, grilling and a jet stove.

And started rebuilding the out house. Hope to have an electric composting toilet in there soon.
This video is of the Jet Stove.
And I also, after 30 plus years, finally got water out at the cabin!

New little gem.
Found this little gem yesterday on one of my fall, no leaf drives. Had probably driven by it a few times and missed it with leaves on the trees.
Original was built in 1850, and the guy I talk to said it was a corn crib. I can believe a barn or shed, but the workmanship seemed to nice for a corn crib.
It is now be used as a meeting place for a local black powder rifle club. A perfect idea for such a group.
Two of the members were there when I found it, and were able to give me a little history of the rebuild.
They had a nice little stove going inside which kept it plenty comfortable.
Unfortunately, the festival no longer takes place after almost 50 years.
Hope this group gets to use this site for many more years.
