Welcome to the cabin! This website is a resource for our guests to have a fun and low stress visit. Note that this cabin is not for rent: This page is for the occasional visit from family and friends. The key thing to remember about the cabin is do not flush 'flushable' wipes, feminine products, or condoms in the cabin . Flushable wipes (and etc.) will clog the pooper pumper resulting in an absolute mess for you and us. In fact, you shouldn't flush flushable wipes anywhere because they cause problems in communities across the planet. ONLY THE THREE P'S DOWN THE TOILET: Poop, pee, and paper. No "flushable" wipes. UNLOCKING THE DOOR: Enter your code, and then press the large-ish button at the bottom of the lock ( details here ). To reset the code-entering if you screwed up, press the large-ish button at the bottom. LOCKING THE DOOR: Close the door and press the large-ish button at the bottom. THE WATER: The water is potable. You may want to run it for a few ...

  A few years ago, we traveled up to Newfoundland to avoid hurricanes in Vacation Option A (Florida Keys) and see where Leif Erikson "discovered" the New World some 500 years before Columbus. Toward the end of our trip, we spent a couple days in St Johns and, ironically, were hit with the remnants of a hurricane. So we stayed inside our VRBO, drank Moose Joose, and listened the owner's excellently diverse collection of LPs (from Dead Kennedys to Patsy Cline) while it stormed outside. It was quite magical, so we resolved to recreate the experience (sans the Moose Joose) in our cabin.   Since we encourage guests to leave an album after their stay, here's a list of what we have (sans recent additions by recent guests), to prevent dupes.  If you have no idea what to get, there are some suggestions after the list below:   Note that artist names are listed alphabetically by first name: ABBA Greatest Hits AC/DC Back in Black Andrew Sisters Near You...

can you drive your tesla from austin to cloudcroft?

  The short answer is "Yes!" I've been able to make it with no problems with a Model 3 and, more recently, a Model Y, both Long Range versions. Driving Teslas along major highways is not a problem anywhere, but that run from the last supercharger to Cloudcroft is a nailbiter for a newbie. On my first trip to Cloudcroft some four years ago, the in-car router sent me straight to Cloudcroft via Austin to Junction, Junction to Fort Stockton, Fort Stockton to Pecos, and Pecos to Cloudcroft. The first time we made that last run from Pecos to Cloudcroft was a nailbiter since the car said we'd arrive with about 20 miles left in the "tank." Did the range estimator account for the increasing slope and decreasing temperature? It appears it did since we showed up with about 30 miles left. These days, the on-board computer sends you to El Paso and then up through Alamogordo. This is less risky since it is 108 miles instead of 213 miles, but it adds an hour (or more) to y...
