RUNNING WATER!!!

WHEW!! After 10-freakin' years without running water, I am back in the semi-civilized world. No real toilet yet, but I don't want to go TOO crazy. My head might just implode. In the meantime, I'm enjoying wayyy too many baths in my kick-ass tub!

Here's a few pics of the awesome tub and awesome sink and awesome running water and the awesome hot water heater and awesome dogs just for kicks! :)


Tankless water heater - it is awesome, saves a ton of space too. Even if it does cost an arm and a leg, it's worth it!


Hole in my logs, agh!


Of all the projects I've done in my lifetime in the Yukon, I've never tried or wanted to try plumbing. And I now know why, I HATE IT!! It's horrible and confusing and there are so many little parts... I did however, learn to make that thing. Which leaked when we tried it out, oops! So I fired myself.


Pooh Bear! Yay, we have water!!! She even lays beside the tub when I'm in it - can't be too far from the human.


The new Ikea sink is now functional.


Sweet glorious running water into a huge, roomy tub. Life is great. :)

You will never ever be able to go without again!! I almost want to come up and take a bath to help celebrate. My husband hates plumbing too Stacie so you are not alone there. ENJOY.

Plumbing sucks because if it goes bad, you get wet where you don't want it! My one pug loves to lie on the bath mat when I'm having a bath, the other one is probably worried I'll try to wash her or something, so she stays clear! :)

Hey Sue!! Yep, loving the water thing, life is SO much easiser, who woulda thought?!? :)

PB is still a brat, but the most adorable brat around. Everyone is pretty good, the pack is aging, slowing down a bit, but that's the way it goes I guess. If anything, it makes my life easier now that they're not so nutso! I can keep everyone inside together, it's pretty peaceful for the most part. How are you!?!?
