Rebuilding a family cabin in Maine with my brother @dish has been an experience of a lifetime. We have spent every childhood summer up there (to this day). The cabin is on a small island in the Moosehead Lake region of northern Maine. When this solar panel induced fire happened in the summer of ‘22, the whole family was in devastation.  After nearly 2 years of uncertainty, wondering if we’d ever be able to rebuild this special place of ours, we were blessed to have family members help us with the process of rebuilding. Within 14 days in June of ‘24, we were able to completely frame the new structure of the house. The primary crew consisted of myself, my brother, my sister, mom/dad, 2 hard working cousins, as well as my uncle who was the mastermind behind the whole operation. 

Everything happens for a reason, we all became closer as a family, closer as friends, and all gained life long skills and memories that will never be forgotten.

That sounds like such a great experience! It's wonderful that you and your brother are able to rebuild the cabin and continue the tradition of spending summers there. I hope the solar panel fire didn't cause too much damage. Best of luck with the rebuilding process!
