Up until now, we have been using a small step ladder as the entrance to our yurt. This has worked fine as a temporary way to get into our yurt, but now it’s time for an upgrade. It’s time to build a permanent deck and stairs as the entrance to our yurt. If you’ve been following our journey you know that along with building our off grid yurt, we are starting to build our future home. When our cabin foundation site was dug out, we had to take down an old deck that has been on our land since we purchased it 9 years ago. All of the wood from the old deck was still in great condition so we have been saving it to use for future projects. The first project we get to use this repurposed wood for is the deck and stairs that will be the permanent entrance to our yurt. This is awesome because it makes getting in and out of our yurt so much easier, and now we have a permanent structure that we can attach a covered entrance to. And now a little back story on us, in case you just found us on YouTube. We’re Sara and Ryan. We are your average suburban family, but 9 years ago, we purchased a raw piece of land in the Hood Canal in Washington. We’ve been developing this piece of property slowly, and this year we knew it was time to go all in. So we purchased a log cabin kit home and decided that 2020 would be the year we built a house on our property. We plan to build this cabin (as much as we can) on our own. Unfortunately, COVID-19 put a delay on our cabin kit being produced and delivered in the time frame we had originally planned. While we could have just waited it out and pushed back starting on the build of our home, we decided to shift gears and change our course for the time being. We purchased a 30 foot yurt, and will be setting it up as additional living space when we begin to build our cabin. Follow along with us as we build our dream in the Hood Canal.
