Check out my summer project - the new cedar barrel sauna at the cabin! A quick little background, we jumped on the home improvement bandwagon just like everyone else did this year. We were looking for a project that was fully DIY to bide time this summer, but we also wanted the project to be something that could help us enjoy and get through the winter - which I'm sure will end up being a rough one. Enter, The Barrel Sauna! Not only did it provide me with a project for the summer, but it's gonna make winter a whole lot more doable. Hot humid therapy during those freezing cold winter months is gonna slay. READ MORECheck out my summer project - the new cedar barrel sauna at the cabin!

We've basically been living at our cabin for the last six months, so we've got to know how it functions pretty well. One of the things that really tends to grind our gears is the refrigerator!

That is what happened once I started gaining momentum on the new sauna area of our front side yard at the cabin... READ MORE
About three months into quarantine we realized that the home goals that we had made for the year were quickly changing. We had talked about getting the house painted and adding onto the deck at the cabin maybe even getting a hot tub, but all of that began to melt away as the days of quarantine lingered on. Then, after a champagne fueled morning, we decided we needed a project so our weekend mornings wouldn't be entirely filled with just drinking champ. READ MORE
We’ve spent the better part of the last 4 months at the cabin. We head home from time-to-time to check the mail, check on the neighborhood and mow the lawn. I’ve been missing my garden in a major way. I look forward to spring more than any other time of year.
