I woke up the other day and I could hear my neighbors, so I went to see them. Below is their picture. They weren't very friendly. Tim walked over to get a closer picture and stampeded the herd.
I figured it was time to get rid of the skids and make some actual stairs. Below are some pictures.

With the help of Bruce(thanks), I finally got my bell line trenched out to the pole at the road(approx 5 days of hard labour). Bell showed up last Friday to do the hook-up........Yep.......we should get it done in 2 to 3 weeks.....tic.....tic.....tic...
Now that the outside of the logs are stained and sealed, it is now time to do the inside of the logs. This is a shot of the inside when I started staining . It is now done, and I now need to put on 3 coats of clear to seal them.
Today I changed the angle of the solar panels. I was shocked at how much they needed to be lowered. The sun is still not at its lowest angle yet (December 21st). Lowering them should help with my power production. I don't yet have any backup power so I loose power every night for a few hours.

This is my propane backup generator. I hope to get it operational this coming week. When it is finished it will be fully automatic and start and stop as required. I'll let you know how it turns out.
