2011: What we did
Electronic Locks: We added touch pad locks
this year! This eliminates the worries of losing keys, getting locked out and are much more secure.
Automated
Heat controls: We automated our heating and cooling systems so there is nothing guests need to adjust, worry about
or deal with. Everything is now more efficient and hands off!
Driveway reworked: For everyone but Mike a
cheer will go up at our wider driveway! The circular drive is now much more functional, there is more parking and we
fixed the trench our contractors left in the driveway after work done in 2010!
Mud free paths: Spring time was
always interesting as everything is so wet... so we added rock pathways so that getting to the back yard area and outdoor
play areas are stone paths, not bare dirt! This should make it much cleaner in and around the cabin.
Improved
drainage: Record snow levels caused many problems in Timberlakes when it all melted, so we installed 50ft of drainage
to eliminate the pooling in the driveway and to improve spring and summer drainage
GRASS! We have plans for a
small lush grassy area on the west side that will hopefully attract even more deer and moose as we plant some delicious grasses
outside the windows by the great room and dining areas.
WAR: we have declared war on the thistles, pickers and
otherr offenders... their reign of the grounds is coming to an end! :)
