Little Cabin in the Woods - Part II

Friends, I'm back!

I know I've promised you grand posts about my new apartment and my new classroom, and they're coming! Just not today.  Today is all about the Little Cabin.

Last weekend, I finally made it up to Mountain Man's territory.  He desperately wanted to work on the cabin, and even though that wasn't what I had in mind for the weekend, I made a promise to him to help, and help I did!

Before we get into the picture part of this post, Mountain Man asked that I include some sort of disclaimer about the state of the inside of the cabin.  He's a little embarrassed, but seeing as it's not his fault, I don't think he has any reason to be.  DISCLAIMER: WHAT YOU WILL SEE BELOW IS THE DIRECT RESULT OF WILD CRITTERS, VANDALS, AND A RESTORATION/REMODEL IN PROGRESS AND SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED INDICATIVE OF MOUNTAIN MAN'S PREFERRED LIVING CONDITIONS.

Now, ya'll settle in, because I've got lots to tell.

Little Cabin in the Woods

Are you ready for your first look at Mountain Man's cabin?

This month, he's been working on clearing the massive amount of underbrush and weeds that have grown up along the driveway and around the actual house.  He wants to get all that cleared out to make it easier to haul supplies and whatnot back and forth.

I wanted to chronicle this myself, but thankfully unfortunately, Mountain Man started this project without me.  The kind of work this will require is not my favorite or even something I know much about, but I've committed myself to helping him with this.  He's been anxious to get started, but hopefully I'll be there to take some photos myself next time and you'll get to see the inside too.

So without further ado, some before and after shots Mountain Man took of the grounds with his cell phone and emailed to me.
