What is going on in your yurtiverse?

Well that was a fun journey hahaha. Welcome back to PEI. You probably missed it like crazy anyway.

[amberoons]

yeah I really did. i missed the country. no country left where I'm from... well... nothing we could ever afford without dabbling in some illegal high profit activity haha. I guess theres good and bad wherever you go... i miss some parts of my hometown, but it couldn't compete with small town, country, endless beaches, acreage and yurts.

well our Yurtiverse experienced the worst rainfall I've ever known early this morning. I love fall (I really do)... but the rain that comes with it takes on a whole new meaning when you live in a really big tent. It was so loud on the 'roof' it was borderline deafening. Usually we sleep through everything. We've slept through two full blown tropical storms... but this 3 am rain was just over the top and woke all 4 sound sleepers. I'll be needing caffeine today.

The temperatures have also dropped so fast this approaching fall we have needed the wood stove on twice this fall already.

Up at camp for early bear season. Was coming back after a 5 mile hike and just had a moment where I realized the camp is finally starting to come together a bit. Took a pic:

Oh, and I am not only bear hunting. Look what else I found.

Had a campfire tonight; cooked up the shrooms, along with some chicken and cauliflower.

I am so crazy envious...

Little outdoors to mention here, and I am an outdoors kind of guy.

I'm surpised to hear that about the rain noise. We have yurts in the rainforest here in Hawaii and are rarely bothered by the sounds of rain on the roof. It's nothing like the deafening sound of a downpour on a metal roof . But in areas where we're used to attic space, major

insulation

, several layers of building materials to buffer the noise... yeah, it is way louder than that. And of course in torrential downpours, the sound is loud, but I don't really mind it. I love the feeling of being snug in a yurt in that kind of weather.

Wowza, Jafo! Your camp is looking fantastic! And those shrooms don't look half bad either...

Jafo, lovin the yurt site! What else would you do to your yurt and the site if you were living there full time?
