I wasn't sure how or even if everything would line up with the entrance wall of the new cabin, so i clamped a few things in place.

For those of us who remember Myspace, the current state of FB is all too familiar.

We signed up so friends could remain in contact, and talk about anything between our chosen peers, but over time we found ourselves logging in to endless distraction instead.

It's just hard work now.

Still a little to dig up. A bypass track has been cleared now, so the old steps can be shut down.

The 12 step program is reaching around the corner.
There was one more stump in the way. Gone now!

Ex stump, now drying out for firewood.

Obstacle removed, now back to my 12 step program.

All steps must be at least 1200mm wide.
That's the standard i set myself, so this stump is going.

8 steps complete on the 12 step program.

4 more to go once the concrete dries.

It's not cold.
I'm not sick (physically)
I'm out of gravel.
Here's step 3 mostly done.
And relevant lighting.

More gravel and progress soon.

Sick, but still making very very slow progress.

Second step in my 12 step project.

Today i broke Duolingo.

It stuck itself in a loop and put me through the same listening lesson about 20 times till i shut it down.

That's not so bad though. My German score is now 51. Although the course aims to go to 160, nothing is written past 80, so a well learned 80 is better than a poor 80

First step laid.
11 more to go.

This is my primary power source at the moment.

Yes the trees need a trim.

This gets up to 4 hours sunshine through winter.

Other panels get a little bit, but nothing fantastic.

It's an ongoing journey..

Today's German lesson....

"Ich habe mich übergeben"

..... meaning "i threw up".

Duolingo just gave me a half hour lesson on vomiting.

Another $5 meal bought from the bowling club last night.

Actually i bought 3, a loaf of bread, a jar of cauliflower pickle, and that's pretty much me set up till Monday.

Here is a display of modesty and foresight.

I wish to credit this man with creating what would facilitate almost every thing positive on the interweb.
