  • In 2018 when I paddled the St. John River with Gracie, we came across the old cabin at Flaws Bogan. An old Maine Forest Service cabin from the 1930's/40's. It was in rough shape and in need of maintenance so after completing the river trip I contacted North Maine Woods. The director agreed to hire me to make the repairs necessary to preserve the cabin. In this video I return to complete the finishing touches on the cabin that I wasn't able to get to last trip. #logcabin #offgrid #cabinbuilding
    This cabin is an official North Maine Woods campsite and is open to the public on a first come first served basis.

    Never stops to amaze me! The awesome creation of God, the blueness of the skies, the greenness of the evergreens and the glimmering water, we have a lot to thank God for 👍 😃 Thank you for sharing another stunning video. Beautiful as always the memory verse. Hugs to a wonderful pretty Gracie. Have a wonderful time out there and such a great work on that cabin. Waiting for more ................

    I love your dog, you could not have a better companion. Your nature and wildlife scenes are awesome, you have a fantastic eye to catch the best to include. You need to be greatly complimented on the work you did on the cabin. I remember your original visit, looking for all the issues that needed addressed. You did outstanding work and I hope others appreciate all you did and someone pats you on the back as they say “Well done”. Love your vids.

    Thank you for all your hard work restoring this and other cabins. Truly a community service you can be proud of your entire life. A note about Gracie. I have a pup with a similar attitude. Actually, my pup is an old lady. What I love about Gracie and Patches is their "take what I get attitude and make the most of it". Lay in the grass and sleep, or sit and sniff the air on the boat. Too bad more humans couldn't adapt that behavior and be happy with less.

    • @TheMaineWoods
      @TheMaineWoods  2 года назад +2

      Canoers stop in and use the cabin in the spring and people hike in and use the cabin in the fall. I have done most of the work during the summer when there’s a lull in visitors, there’s also been moose hunting parties that have used the cabin

  • @Thatuptownguy
    @Thatuptownguy 2 года назад +1

    Great Job. Question, do you end up putting anything to close up beneath the cabin such as stones or wood boards around the circumference to close the gap between the sill and the ground. I would imagine the draft when its cold would come up through the floor and effect the heat inside pretty noticeably? Amazing job. Not many people around with your skillset.

    • @TheMaineWoods

      No, that is not the intent of this cabin, it is primarily used by canoeists paddling the river in the spring and summer.

    Love the cabin. You obviously know much about building and restoring but not as much about dogs. You can look this up. Peanut butter is bad for dogs. Otherwise all is well.
