    Starting our forever home in North Idaho... Finally!

    Not a lot visually the last few weeks but progress is being made. Rough HVAC started this week and should wrap up early next week. Biggest visual is the fireplace was installed yesterday. Yes it's a wood burner, this will be used as our majority source of heat. We still have about 2" of...

    Shasta Snow Trip 2023 VW Content

    My bucket list is getting a Double cab and traveling all over the US to Minor league ball parks. I've been to a lot of the Major league parks and really enjoy the Minor league games more.

    Snowing on the Strip

    I remember 2008 had a hell of a snow fall. I was staying in our toy hauler during the week and home to So Cal on the weekends, cold as hell! Now here we are in a fifth wheel for our second winter in Idaho. Much better setup this time around! 😂

    Golden Retriever (in the market)

    Goldens are the best dogs, we've got our second one now. Our first was the absolute best dog ever, sweet, gentle, smart, somewhat protective. I know everyone says that their dog is the best, but literally everyone that met her said it. Unfortunately lost her to cancer. The latest one is a good...

    Dogs: Heeler or Border Collie?? Give Me Input.

    We have a few Great Pyrenees around us. Good BIG dogs that let predators know to stay away(cue incessant barking thruout the night). A couple of them come pay us a visit from time to time. I wasn't sure how they would handle the heeler nipping at them, but they tolerate her.

    Side arm

    What's the saying, An armed society is a polite society. I believe this to be true, at least here in Idaho where you should assume most are carrying. All I know is there is usually something within reach at most times, I need to keep the coyotes at bay.

    Dogs: Heeler or Border Collie?? Give Me Input.

    You can't, its completely ingrained in their DNA. My daughter and SIL have a few year old mini-blue heeler. Great dog! and loves to herd anything. Incredibly smart. She loves to go on our miles long rides with the horses. My son got a red heeler last July, wife agreed to let him get her. In...

    Starting our forever home in North Idaho... Finally!

    Couple quick pics. Roof is done! Windows and doors are in! Need to finish the house wrap. Siding crew is a few weeks out. Friday night we had a herd of elk come thru. Not the best pic, it was pretty much dark and I was zoomed all the way in with my phone. Better pics in the future once we get...

    That cross country move.

    Exactly why we didn't sell everything!

    That cross country move.

    I picked up a truck in Fort Mohave and drove back to OC for our move almost 7 years ago. The cost to pick up in OC was 4 to 5 times more. I think I paid about $1500 plus fuel.

    Starting our forever home in North Idaho... Finally!

    Plumbers showed up yesterday to get all of the roof penetrations done. They also set the tub in the second bathroom. Windows and exterior doors were delivered yesterday. Siding guys are here this morning getting the house wrapped and windows installed. Roofers are also here today getting...

    2023 Ford Mustang Mach-E4X GT Performance Edition

    Agreed! My wife’s cousin has one and tried to justify the name with me because it has some of the same lines along the roof. 😂😂😂

    Been here since 2016, just finally found the right property. But thanks.

    Starting our forever home in North Idaho... Finally!

    Angler, Pretty much all new construction here is raised foundation, unless your doing radiant floor heat. Slabs without radiant heat aren't recommended in cold climates due to the freezing and thawing thruout winter. Ricks raft, the guys have been great. Very surprising that they have...

    Starting our forever home in North Idaho... Finally!

    Not a lot of progress these last couple weeks. Shear inspection passed with no issues. Waiting on the plumber to get started, supposed to be here this week. Cleaning up last weekend I stopped to take a break and enjoyed the view from the kitchen. Roofing materials are being delivered today.

    Have you seen Idiocracy? I'm not even sure it's going to take 100 years...

    Park Outside Your House Nightly ?

    Sooo, mentioning that all of our cars/trucks have the keys in them and haven't been locked in I don't know how long probably doesn't provide any help here... But the weather is nice.. Just kidding!😂

    Bush Barbie (condom commercial)

    This is the box they come in, aside from yours! 🤣🤣🤣 Great commercials. I agree we need this type of commercials here in the US. I might actually watch a commercial instead of fast forwarding past them.

    Input please, Home Security Cameras ??

    I tried Blink from Amazon, they were ok but kept losing connectivity to the home base. Mostly due to my setup here in the shop while we wait for our house to finish. The tin siding causes issues with WiFi. I returned them to give Ring stickup cameras a try. Because of where we live our...
