It’s a big day! A project that I’ve been trying to do for 8 years is finally complete! 🤪 Literally every time we’ve attempted to begin, inevitably something else swoops in & bumps it down to the bottom of the list…broken septic, broken boiler, broken roof(s), major flood, yadda, yadda. But finally in 2024, our ‘Walleye’ cabin’s fans can rest assured that the 40+ year old shower is OUT, & the shiny new shower is IN! WITH the added bonus of the hot & cold on the dial, actually matching the hot & cold water coming out of the showerhead! It’s a great day at Big Arb Resort! 😂😂😂
