Our Alaskan Abode
Woops! forgot to add a couple pics...... MaN CaVe stuff...
Ive been melting down the ice in the hot tub, and watching the water leak out the bottom. Tho I think with the tub warming, the cedar will swell enough to stop the leaks we'll see. And!! if it actually holds water we'll also see if it stays standing, as the pilings holding it up are rotting away. (Don't worry mom I'll wear my floaties and have a boogie board handy to ride the wave out)
Yes the cave is located in the cellar, half wood half dirt, very nice! A cave of caves so to speak. Got the work bench to the left there, just perfect... I know!
Old house entry to the driveway, forgot to post earlier, jeep had half an inch clearance into the garage with 12 psi in the tires :)
Entry to the new pace and bringin the elk to Juneau with it....something you don't see around here.
Just last weekend we moved into this amazing little timberframe cabin "out the road". We're at the dead end of Cohen Drive, which runs along forest and ocean, and we're nestled in the treetops, but only a 10 minute walk away from ocean views. We finally feel like we're "home" here in Juneau living out here. These are just a few pics of outside, and more of inside are soon to come!
We're down this road!

ReplyDeleteThe hot tub is already there! It's Alaskan style, guuurrrl! All wood, fills with rainwater and is heated by a "snorkel" woodfire compartment that literally does all the heating. We'll get it going when you're here...oh yeeeeeah.
