Or they can be upset I went over budget about $100. 😥 Or be proud they blocked my family from donating close to $1500 towards the mattresses all in the name of following cabin protocol.😮 I'm thankful for the new mattresses, though, otherwise, it's no vacation to have a sore back every night, and no one in my family would even want to go if those old mattresses were still there. But now we are comfy! 😍 We just need new mattresses in the loft room. They didn't get replaced and are "not comfortable." 😣 However, I feel I've learned my place and dare not volunteer to replace them. Ya know? 😉 Thanks for the acknowledgment!

To the Kent Cornwall Family: All the photos are amazing! You have such a great family. So many smiles. The cabin is such a special place. Thanks for all the work you did while you were there! BTW: That is a big moose! P.S. Only thing missing is an upright piano. I know of two that could go up there. Let's take a vote! #bringthepianoback

Jon, that is cool you got such a great picture of it! Years ago, we heard restling in some bushes. Tevin was young and walked over to take a look and some animal (about the size of that marmot) hissed and went charging after him. I wonder if they are agressive like that. Ha-ha. Scared us to death. Thanks for sharing.

I think we all have a lot to share and offer. It would be nice if the cabin reps created an account and then enciuraged all Cornwalls in their families to connect here!!! I like your “flight attendant” look in the 3rd picture. Haha. Time for a Cornwall Family Reunion!

Lissy and I have been told that we may NOT put an item in a location it is not traditionally in. Soooo... this trash can will be in the upper middle bedroom closet and is available for anyone to use during their stay at the cabin who chooses not to feed the mice by continuing to use the open trash can. It is much easier to use this new trash can with the foot step rather than pushing that swing door open to finagle putting trash into the current trash can. I say it's time for some type of change with the current trash can situation. Hope the reps will think about it.

I love all the pictures and learning what awesome hosts you are at the cabin. Looks like you had a wonderful time. But, how can one not have a wonderful time? Thanks for posting. I want to go to Mirror Lake now!!

Dear Sister, Thank you! I know it took a long time to post your thoughts and ALL those amazing photos! I LOVE everything you said and it was so sweet and lovingly written. (I love your fox and glad you had a friend by your side.) It was such a blessing to have you in Utah and so close by and to have your support and love. I was so thankful to have you by my side during the week before and after Kurt passed away. I'm so thankful we could spend a few days at the cabin together after the funeral. I really needed the quiet and solitude and grounding one can only get at the Pines Ranch. It will be a beautiful memory. I felt divine intervention for the timing of everything. Ecclesiastes 3. 1-13 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace. What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth? I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it. He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end. I know that there is no good in them, but for a man to rejoice, and to do good in his life. And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it is the gift of God.

If you haven't heard of this site, before, Wayfair has some really great prices, so you might want to check it out when exploring for new bedding. This comes as a comforter or a duvet. Happened to notice this when online looking for something else and couldn't help but love the bear pillow since Rosalyn saw a BEAR at the cabin today!!! https://www.wayfair.com/bed-bath/pdp/eddie-bauer-mountain-100-cotton-reversible-duvet-set-erb1424.html?piid=15234730%2C27324434

Believe me, yes I did! I remember each birth well. haha

I have never seen a moose at the cabin. I hope I do someday. Thanks for all you do at the cabin, Kent!
