Yep all mine. The wife and I built it ourselves. Only had a contractor for the stuff that the state wouldn't let me do. Electrical and plumbing mostly.
Awesome!
Mad skills and killer design!
Looks like a postcard in the snow!
One of my best friends is a Master Carpenter...gave it up 2 years ago and works where I do now repairing machines, but has built some incredible multi-million dollar homes.
I Love seeing that kind of creativy.
Hat's off to you and your wife sir!
Whew....there was a day of snow clearing.....out at 0615 clearing for the wife to go to work and never really stopped.
I've just now returned from clearing one of the senior lady's driveway...although it is only a 600m or so walk, there was no plow out today and the snow was deep with that pain the arse layer of snow in the bottom that your foot slips on so it feels like a lot farther....

...but it's keeping the old man in shape, right
Enough snow out there to go snowshoeing....so I did...only went about 3kms but it was a good start to get the muscle memory up and running......but it's keeping the old man in shape, right
Snowshoeing really works the hip flexors...
Breathing the cold air while doing intense exercise(even running up hills sledding with my daughter) really kills me.
Warmer air and it's night and day, I have my endurance back.
I've never been able to overcome it.
I'm sure that has little to no effect on you though, or else you could never have endured the extreme cold you've experienced.
It is taxing...we did lots of high altitude training as well which seems to help breathing endurance.
If it gets really cold with a wind, I wear a balaclava...(I've got a few black ones left).
I drove through the Rockies(Kansas to Denver, out into Utah).
I'de never been higher than about 5k'(other than flying).
We were at over 11k', and wow, that was an experience. Going up felt like breathing through a snorkel with someone standing on my chest, lol.
I can definately see the benefit of training there.
I always remember Tito Ortiz saying how he trained for all his fights in Big Bear, and how much being conditioned for less oxygen benefitted him in the ring...and I think it really showed.
Commercial flying is awful for me too though. My ears pop and it feels like ice picks being jammed into both.
It literally takes 2 weeks or more for my head to clear after and start to feel normal. I hate that.
I know I'm drifting hear to, but kinda reminds me of watching fighter pilot training. A bachelors degree, then more schooling, then the largest percentile of applicants black out in the centrefuge.
Sorry, you're done, you've got the smarts...but your individual body isn't designed to handle the G-force...Next!
I think the vast majority of people don't realize the physical and mental requirements to be a Spec Ops soldier.
Pretty amazimg to me, and called 'special' for a reason.
I watched a friend's daughter when she was about 5 spin herself in about 20 circles as fast as she could...and walk up and talk to me like it never happened(I'de have knocked pictures off the wall and fallen into the tv, lmao).
Cold as crap
Pretty chilly for me
We got a foot of snow last nght...I was out shoveling (at 0600) and one of the neighbor's wives walked over and asked me if I'd show her how to use their snowblower (we have the same one)....after a few minutes of teaching she was off and running around the driveway like a pro..
Now having a little breakfast and out at it again....
We've got a winter's worth of snow in 2 days.
