And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two?

But Rob, then it's an asset, and it may well retain its worth and/or increase the value of your property. It's not as if the money has vanished, just changed form.
In an isolated spot where you didn't have neighbors, this would be a very nice bug out place. Needs a good woodstove though, to offset all that glass in cold weather. And even if that deck is cedar, it'll last longer with a good covering stain to keep off the UV light.
Rain is going off that roof onto that deck then under the shack. Comment above are spot on. Any place warm enough to not need insulation is going to have termites and they will make short work of that unit

Elmo, any new snow this past wknd?
DeleteNot a flake or drop here. Most of the action was in the high country south of Lake Tahoe.
DeleteStanding firewood.
DeleteUninsulated and sitting on those useless cement post blocks. Otherwise nice looking.
ReplyDeleteThat foundation wouldn't pass code for a small deck. Insane!
