We continue to adjust to our new wild life in northern Minnesota. Gary is originally from Minneapolis and I grew up on a dairy farm in southern Minnesota so while we did come back to our home state this area of the state is different for both of us. And we love it.
Our living space in the back of the pole barn is about 500 square feet. We have the essentials like dogs, dog food, dog sweaters, a frig, kinda running water, our king size bed so the dogs are comfy, heat, internet, tv and a quasi toilet. By that I mean portable night time potty for me. Gary is working on getting space ready for our new compost toilet coming soon which will probably be a blog in itself.
We are about 8 miles from the nearest town if you don’t count Bruno which is basically a corner bar. Our road leading to our place is minimum maintenance meaning the USPS will not deliver mail to us so our mailbox sits all alone down the road waiting to get hit by a four wheeler or truck or random deer.
We added a 100 mile tv antenna so we get enough stations to keep the dogs happy unless it’s windy then the tv may cause seizures. Because Gary doesn’t have enough to do, he ordered two dump truck loads of gravel waiting to be spread around before the snow flies.
If anyone is in the market for a free cabin come with a big truck and hazmat suit cause it’s coming down soon. Comes with mold, mouse droppings, green bathtub, empty frig filled with more mold and some mildew.
