We are getting SO CLOSE to having the foundation work for our a-frame cabin complete. Once we have the area around our foundation backfilled, the build of our cabin will be 100% in our hands. But before we get too far ahead of ourselves, we have to make sure we are ready for the backfill to happen. What do we need to get done before the contractors can backfill? We will install a large window well that will go in front of the entrance to our crawl space under the house. We also get all of the materials necessary to put in the daylight tube to our foundation drain so the contractors can backfill over it. 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 8 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.
