Mother's Day Weekend

Hi All,

We are staying home in Indiana this weekend. We have been busy with several Ossian based projects and we look forward to spending the day with my Mom and sisters tomorrow.

I have been busy planning the Electrical layout of our cabin. The Plumber will start next week and he should be done in a few days. So that will put the ball in my court, so to speak. I hope to be traveling up to MI next weekend to start running wiring. I may take a couple days of vacation so that I can get a good start. We spent a few hours today picking out ceiling fans and lighting fixtures.
I have to be very frugal on wiring because of the high price of copper wire. I paid $80 for one 250 foot spool of wire this week. And that is just a small amount compared to what I will need later. I framed in the shower stall last weekend and ran addition outlets for construction purposes. I spent some quality time down in our crawl space under the cabin. It has a very small door, that I have to back into while on my hands and knees. I have ripped out the crotch on 2 pair of jeans so far.
I may need to go in naked the next time to save on the cost of jeans.
We were the only people on our road last weekend so it was very quiet and peaceful.
We also had some free time to explore the area. We were advised to not leave our newly purchased bird feeder out at night due to bear problems! YEEHAWW! BEARS!
We visited the nearest lake (5 miles away) and we were pleasantly surprised to find a very nice boat ramp and crystal clean water. There is a State Campground on this lake and Trout fishing is available there.
We found out where we can dump our garbage and that the cost is included in out taxes.
We also ate at a very nice restaurant in Lewiston MI. We were seated at a table overlooking a very beautiful lake that is supposed to be full of Pike and Musky and Walleye. I can hardly wait to have time to fish!

Here is a photo that Sue Ann took after I finished the shower framing.
