The Red Cabin

Paul just published a video - somewhat of a pre-trailer for the Freaky Cheap Heat Movie - where you can see a sneak peak to the newest Rocket Mass Heater Build in the Red Cabin.

Paul calls it the "old reliable", and the mass goes partly under the bed!



I wonder if we could somehow get some new pictures from the Red Cabin..

An in-depth conversation between Paul and Uncle Mud about the rocket mass heater inside the red cabin atm:

The rocket mass heater in the red cabin is looking real handsome!

I would love to get in contact with someone about a few questions. We would love to have the 3 of us (my husband, our 2 ish year son & myself) out at the Wheaton land, stay in the red cabin or others for a month. My husband does run a business “from home” so I was curious about Internet access for him. We would really enjoy the time & I am home fulltime with our son, creating, growing, building, homemaking and such. I have done a lot within the permies site to dive in, connect & take some actions on more badges/organizing it all.

Amy, what is your question?

Amy, if your question is if there is internet at the Red Cabin, the answer is "yes".

Somebody sent email to staff and then one of the staff sent it to me and i am gonna try to answer some of the questions ...

How far are the out houses from that cabin?

We have two willow feeders near the red cabin.  The closer of the two is willow bank - about 80 yards?

is there a place on the land for Internet?

For the red cabin, yes.  We all share one starlink.  There is also cell service at the red cabin.


There is then some stuff about which cabin.  I really think the smart thing to do is to pick one ...   the red cabin is the most popular ...   and give it a try.  And then you kinda get the lay of the land and can contemplate the other cabins.

Yes these were my emailed in questions. Thank you! I am learning the most effective way to communicate on here, and connect with y’all. Paul- we would like to get a month on the calendar for our family of 3 in the red cabin. As long as my husband can have internet, that is absolutely wonderful. My son and I just need nature to feel our best each day really, simple life. What would be the best next step for us to move forward, reserve time & all?

next step:  part with coin!

My husband and I stayed in the red cabin in February and it was lovely. The pebble bench goes right under your feet when you are in bed - toasty toes! I usually have cold feet and I sleep in thick wool socks. I had to take off my socks in the wee hours of the morning.
There's a bunk over the double bed, so a kid could sleep up there.
The rocket mass heater has a helmet head, making it look like a cartoon character to me:

I sent you an email with a link you can use to make the payment and more details.

Let us know if you received it?

I appreciate your share. I would stay in the red cabin with my husband and 2 ish year young son. This sounds perfect!
