(written on the 28th) In anticipation of the house building efforts that were going to be taking place this morning, we had parked Rover at the end of the horse pasture, so as not to be in the way of the equipment when it came. I can't really remember what was going on the rest … Continue reading 2024-10-26 (Saturday) — Out of Wood!

(written on the 26th from notes taken on the 25th) Woke up early today... I think maybe around 6:30 or something? Didn't get much sleep. Was mostly a lazy day, physically. I spent most of the day trying to catch up on my journal posting, having gotten more than 2 weeks behind. 😅 I dictated … Continue reading 2024-10-25 (Friday) — Journal Catch-Up Day

(written on the 28th from notes taken previously) Today wasn't a very eventful day. My mom and I ran around the basement, which is currently open to the air, putting away tools and cleaning things up because the first rainstorm in months was possibly coming through, and we didn't want any of the power tools … Continue reading 2024-10-24 (Thursday) — Working, Journal Catch Up

(written on the 28th from notes taken previously) It's a pretty cool spot. I haven't been to the spring where it all bubbles out of the ground, but it seems to be a fairly significant amount of water that bubbles out of the ground maybe just a couple of miles or so upstream. After breakfast, … Continue reading 2024-10-23 (Wednesday) — House Building

(written on October 28th from notes taken previously) I totally spaced the fact that we were staying at this rest area and not a truck stop. Originally, we had been planning on staying at a truck stop, so I wasn't thinking about needing to get gas. But then we ended up going a different way, … Continue reading 2024-10-22 (Tuesday) — Big Heads, Hot Springs

(written on the 28th from notes taken previously) Definitely grateful to have been able to stay at that rest area overnight. Just makes it simpler. Not to mention, this rest area was freaking awesome. It was huge. Warm bathrooms. Just... nice. First stop of the day was in Great Falls, Montana. Last time, we just … Continue reading 2024-10-21 (Monday) — Montana Travel Day

(written on the 27th from notes taken previously) We woke up relatively early. Church wasn't going to start until 10, so I did my thing (YouTube, news, politics, sports, etc) until my mom got ready for church, and then i just continued doing the same all the way until she finished the church meetings. I … Continue reading 2024-10-20 (Sunday) — Waterton, Reprise

(Written on the 27th from notes taken previously) We got going a lot later today than we did yesterday, which was fine, just... was. Gratefully, the vent flap bandaid fix survived the night without any problems. 🥳 It was still super windy in the morning, though not as insane as last night. This time, I … Continue reading 2024-10-19 (Saturday) — Kananaskis, Pt. 2

(written on October 27th from notes taken previously) My poor mom was cold last night. Apparently the crazy, and also very cold, wind was being funneled down right on top of her, from the vent to her bed. 🥶 She didn't want to wake me up because she knows how hard it can be for … Continue reading 2024-10-18 (Friday) — Kananaskis

(written on the 26th from notes taken previously) Whoops! Apparently the recreation site we stayed at last night was a day-use only area. 😅 One would think it would have been hard to miss, it was in huge letters right at the top of the sign going in... Except the sign was perpendicular to the … Continue reading 2024-10-17 (Thursday) — Still a Chance?
