A mild winter in the U.P. made it possible to squeeze in an extra trip to finish up a few small projects and schedule inspections. We stayed at the Birch at Hiawatha Cabins as we didn’t want to open the RV this early in the season.

First order of business: finalize and test plumbing.


After a successful test, we were ready for the inspection! One small change was needed, but the end result was success!

We celebrated our plumbing success with a worthy trophy.

With one day before the building inspection, we completed some small jobs, took a short hike, and did some planning for future work.



Friday afternoon, we met with the building inspector. He reminded us that it had been 6 years since we started this process!! If you’ve followed the blog, you know we have done this ourselves, with help from friends and family, at the speed of cash. It has required patience and perseverance. What started as just a dream, turned into sketches and now this.

We celebrated with dinner at the Buckhorn and an early departure this morning. Next trip, we will be getting closed cell insulation installed and after that, we are planning for Dry Wall Summer! Hooha!! J+M


Wonderful successful trip!
I am over the moon proud of you!🫶🌟🫶
