The Outsider

After a month of being away, I'm back at the log cabin! I'm closing up the eaves today while the epoxy door cures back at the workshop. My next episode will be ready in 2 or 3 weeks. By then, the epoxy door will be finished and ready to install!

Wow! 1 Million Subscribers! 🎊🥳🎉 Thank you, thank you, thank you! 😁🙏🙏🙏
...Although Sr Outsider isn't here to share this moment with me, we were still able to celebrate the milestone together. You see, it was this past Easter Sunday that we officially hit 1 million subs. I called my dad to tell him the good news. We talked about how incredible it was that so many people have tuned in, over the years, just to watch us build a log cabin in the woods together.
Dad said that he was proud of me, and I said that I was grateful for him. We agreed that the real reward, was in being able to share this adventure together.
...That was one of the last conversations I had with him. Although I miss not having dad here, especially in moments like these, I know that I'll see him again someday. Then, we'll pick right up where we left off.
...I'm sure many of you have noticed that I haven't posted anything this month, until now. I just wanted you to know that I'm okay. Grieving, yes...but okay.
I recently returned to the cabin to continue the build, and it felt good to roll up my sleeves again. Sometimes a good day's work is the best therapy.
Although I won't have an episode ready for this month, I will have one for you at the very beginning of July.
Thanks so much for your patience and support. You guys are honestly the best.
Until then, my friends.

*Father's Day Post* The legend himself...Sr Outsider...my dad. Thank you for your strong, yet gentle leadership. For letting me make my own mistakes, and then showing me how to fix it, without uttering a single "I told you so"...even though you could have.

You taught without words, and led by example. I learned the value of character, family, and faith by watching you. Thanks for living it.

Thanks for buying me my first chainsaw when I was too broke to afford one.
...I put that little Poulan to work though, didn't I? 😄 ...Built a couple log cabins with it so far...with you by my side, of course.

...and then there was the day the McCormick broke down on me, at the worst time. I was stranded in the bush with my sawmill in tow and a thunderstorm on the way. Mrs. Outsider was at home sick and I needed to get home to her. I was exhausted and discouraged beyond belief.

When you found me, I told you I was fine, but you saw the tears in my eyes. Without a word, you pulled me into a big bear hug. Then you rolled up your sleeves, and we got to work. Thanks for being my strength when mine fails.

Thanks for teaching me that even the strongest men need Jesus. I remember many a morning, coming down the stairs for breakfast and seeing your head prayerfully bowed over a marked-up Bible. Thanks for talking the talk, and walking the walk.

I could go on, but I'll stop here. Happy Father's day dad. Thanks for being my hero.

Hey everyone! Just wanted to let you know that this week's "Cabin Update" will be late, since I've taken some time off hang out with my girls (Mrs. Outsider & Little Miss Outsider ❤). However, I will still be posting a supercut of my snowmobile camper adventures this Saturday, and I should have a cabin update ready for next Saturday. I'd like to thank you all for your constant support and encouragement over the years. I gotta say, I'm blessed to be backed by such a great group of people. #teamoutsider
