We are doing good. Don't have water situated yet. Still hauling it in.

I kinda get signal at the cabin. But the metal roof doesn't help. And no leaves on the trees right now.

And the cabin is a built unit they deliver. It's 16'x40' came fully insulated and unfinished inside. Well this one was a repo so someone kind half@$$ed built some walls in it for bedrooms. The first thing I did was rip their crap out. I got a bunk of rough cut oak boards about 4' wide and 3' tall. They range fro 3" wide to 16" wide and 6' long to 10' long. I will be using for the walls. I'm doing a burned plywood plank wood floor. I have a mess of 6" wide plywood planks we are sanding on. When we are done sanding I will burn them and lay them down. Gona make it look like an old plank floor with exposed nails. Then poly over it. Along with some tile under the stove and at the doors. I'm not going to lay the tile till spring comes. Wanting the floor and house to settle as much as it can before I lay it. One wall and a couple closets is all I'm doing inside.

Love the cabin and the lifestyle choice.I'm sure this is low priority but if you get any kind of signal at all this will turn it into 4g or LTE.
