grandpa is a hero

William just got back from Port Townsend, helping Beth at the cabin. She is moving in (again). The cabin is really in Quilcene, about 25 miles south of PT. Last year we had the driveway built and cleared around the cabin. Grandpa has now taken it to another level!





Beth has a good start on the new shingles.
She built a roof over the back porch.
She set up a kitchen on the back porch while the building is being worked on.
Before insulation and dry wall.
It looks so much better already!
Lots of odd corners, which is why this building is so interesting and worth saving.
Grandpa moved the stairs to the side wall and made a nice railing for Emily's room.
A woodshed was designed and built, firewood cut and piled.
Grandpa put in the sink and made a cutting board counter, put the stove next to that and she is cooking.
They have a new "watch" puppy.
Beth's best friend Bryn and her new baby are visiting. I love how the puppy gets the comfiest chair.


Grandpa was a true hero to go up and make the cabin into a place for them to live!

What a clever Grandpa he is. Cabin looks beautiful. Can't wait to see what he has in mind for the Cuyutlán casa!

This makes my heart ache for the OP! Go, Beth, go! And grandpa too!
