High priority - a place to live

While building the first rental cabin, we lived in our camper trailer. It’s a decent 4-season trailer but the -30 to -40 Celsius weather dealt a hard blow. Tanya wrapped the outside in a cocoon of bubble-wrap insulation then Darwin and his brother encased us in a temporary plywood building wrapped in insulated tarps. We lived in near complete blackout darkness for months while howling wind brought snow and ice that built yet another layer - ice - sometimes dripping like rain on the inside of the plywood. This was a gloomy and difficult experience that tested our resolve to near limits.
