Where have the blog posts been??
Yes it has been awhile since we posted any updates of what has been happening at Stanley's, so I thought I better get back on track and give everyone a good excuse for my lapse in writing. Well the photos below should sum alot of it up. (for those who don't know what they are looking at, this is our house / office at the resort)
This was the house that I grew up in, so it was tough to tear it down, but mother nature and father time both took their toll, on the building, so Chantal and I decided with was time to start from scratch.
I am sure that everyone who has moved before can attest to the joy of the whole experience. With this being said, we did this at the same time as running the camp, tearing down the old house and readying a new place to live. The new place to live happened to be the staff apartments. After several weeks of renovations up there, we moved our family in at the end of July. Ally and Gavan are now sharing a room, but I have told them that the more they help me build the new house, the quicker that they will get their own rooms back.
Moving a complete working office was a challenge as well, as phones and Internet connections were not in place and all had to be added. Needless to say we are all settled and happy in our new spot. A little tightly packed in, but happy.
So what's next... oh yes a new house. That post will follow next.
