That’s beautiful Gene, almost like a contemporary Norman Rockwell painting. Well done, the boulders look great.
Thanks. It really does look nice from the road. I’ve had several neighbors stop and tell me I did a great job.

The electrical work is completed. I do have some gravel retouching to do but that part wasn’t 100% completely anyway.

Work in progress.

This is the plug-in at the RV. Currently it’s plugged directly into the 50 amp 220 and the RV is now set to that setting.

It’s really nice to have this done correct. No more extension cords for the RV. The orange cord is to the RVport lights and will eventually be moved to the port so it’s hidden.

It’s a spare bedroom and guest house. Come visit me and you can stay in it.

I'd love to Gene!...and my Neice lives in Couderay, which, I think is not too far from you up on the Chippawa Flowage. ( not sure of that spelling). Anyway...very tempting.🙂

The Chippewa as we call it is nearby. Of course it runs about 200 miles. Feel free to come and bring some iron. The range isn’t complete but it’s useable.

There’s just something about a proper electrical set up that brings a smile to my face. I’m a bit OCD about electrical work and there’s no excuse for not doing or having it done correctly. When we inherited my wife’s uncle’s place he lived in a shack. There were two or three panels screwed to a post outside including one with the old screw in type of fuses. We hired an electrician to come in, remove all the wiring to these panels and install a proper service panel in the shop building with the feed buried. Be just our luck to have a spark and start a wildfire so we eliminated that.

Your panel looks great and very safe.
