Less sitting, more doing

Oh how happy my soul is when I get to spend weekends at Top Knot. Wonderful weather this weekend.

Took on the challenge of the steps for the back door. Small projects seem to become larger challenges. I’m not in the same shape I was when I built the cabin a couple years ago. Hell, I’m not in the same shape I was this morning before I took on the steps!! But, 500 pounds of quickcrete later, there they are  it’ll take a while for the concrete to really set. I mixed the first few bags a little runny to help it settle into all the crevices and stuff. But it worked! Mission accomplished. It’ll take awhile to really set up, but it’ll be a game changer when it does. 

Each little item I get checked off makes me love this place all the more.

Cooked pizza for lunch in the fire pit. $2 frozen thin crust pizza cooks up mighty fine in there.

Next up, drain lines on the sinks so we can start washing dishes and selves up here. It’s a full list of to dos this summer and I’m eager for each one.

Stopping in a couple hours for some Elite 8 action. Steaming TV up here is a nice little treat.

I’m looking forward to the achy muscles and stiff back. It’ll remind me I did something and help me get ready for the next to do.

I’m a lucky boy.
