The cabin Christmas that almost wasn’t
It was supposed to be our first Christmas Eve in our newly purchased cabin with our 6-year-old daughter, Nicola. We were almost there. So close.
After multiple (five or six maybe?) failed attempts, I suggested we give up, but my husband, Tim, was so worked up and determined to drive his truck all the way up to our cabin’s driveway that he continued to gun it despite several inches of snow-packed road ahead.
The quarter mile, slightly inclined, dead-end road rarely got plowed because nearly every cabin that dotted the road was closed up for the season.
But not ours! We were determined to turn our summer cabin, set high up in the Rocky Mountains, into a year-round abode, despite the lack of insulation and central heat.
So, Tim persisted.
