Wonder why we moved to Portland, OR.? Click on the "The Job" link to see what I am doing on a daily basis....

After closing on the property, we have been itching to get up and actually stay the night. We purchased 5 acres of pristine forest property that has an obstructed (but not after I remove a dozen trees) view of Hood Canal. The property is split in half with a stream that flows year round. Access to the stream is a little tricky, but nothing a good set of stairs won’t take care of. Right off the road there is a level pad which has a 150 SF cabin that is fairly new. We came up with a plan that can make the pad close to 15,000 SF. There are no utilities to the property yet and that

is one of the many things we scoped out this weekend. We found where we can get power, how big of a new cabin we can build, where the septic tank will go and how to get water. We spent the night in the cabin using sleeping bags and candles for light, it was rustic for sure. We watched the sun come up on the Hood Canal which

was breath taking. We left shortly after with big plans for the near future. On the way out of town we decided to stop by Lake Cushman and some scenic pull outs for the Hood Canal.
