## Resource

A simple flooring project turned into another lesson in why building your own cabin is never as straightforward as it looks. This week I talk through the latest cabin progress, why weather is becoming the next obstacle, and how one overlooked specification completely changed the timeline. Then we shift gears into a conversation about autonomous vehicles, why I still won't climb into a driverless taxi, what years of full-time RV living taught us (both good and bad), and finish with a discussion that's especially fitting before Independence Day: Would the people who founded this country recognize what we've become? Along the way we cover: • Cabin construction updates • DIY lessons learned • Full-time RV realities • Waymo and autonomous vehicles • Bitcoin • Government, freedom and personal responsibility You'll also hear about some of the gear and products I actually use around the property.
