Never a lazy moment

For all the "peacefulness" at the cabin, there sure seems to be a lot of work to do.
I got one coat of paint on the main gate. Not perfect, but better.  Will hit it again in the fall.

Weed whacked and sprayed in preparation for doing a turnip plot in September.  Lots of weed whacking and spraying for bugs around the cabin. 

We finally got our first visitors in Oklahoma, which was really great.  But my poor wife did little more than clean house and serve as bug bait!  After 6 months both the cabin and the lake house were dirty, dusty, and in need of about 3 days of house work. -oh, and three days of yard work for me (each). 

Quick visit to the Cabin in June

I wanted to get up to the cabin and see how things are going without me.  It's been a full 6 months since we left Oklahoma for China. I really didn't know what to expect.

The good news: solar power system and electric were in perfect condition. I topped off the batteries and we should be in good shape upon our return in the fall.

Water is OK. But having trouble getting enough pressure in the system.  Seems like the pump is holding its prime, not sure what's happening there.

Still amazingly peaceful there...
