Cabin Facelift


My cabin, and all of my neighbors cabins are being given a "facelift" with extra insulation and new siding. The cabins are all heated with heating oil from 200-300 gallon containers behind the house. Our landlord (Larry) is awesome, and heat is included in our rent (which is EXTREMELY RARE up here). The cost of heating oil is so high that filling a 200-300 gallon tank can cost up to $1000. Up here some cabins can burn through two tanks per winter (mine is about one). The single layer of paneling covering the house just won't cut it anymore. (P.S. Check out the cool new caribou racks we snagged from the Slope this summer!)
