Please ignore the photos of the windows below. I have found some double pane, single hung new windows at 84 Lumber at a great price. One 3 by 3, two 3 by 2’s and one 2 by 2 for $55, $47 and $38 respectively. With the veterans discount I got them all, with screens, for under $200. Similar single pane windows would have been over $300 elsewhere. More pictures to come. I plan on making a greenhouse/hotbed with the old windows.

Step by step
For those who don’t know what Pithole is I will be posting a history. In the meantime I have obtained windows for my cabin.
A few days off
I was off a few days for a medical problem. Will be back out at the land tomorrow.
Tenting
Hey you kids, get off my land! Just kidding. I’m an old hermit but not yet a grouchy old hermit. But I am well armed and former military so it is best not to sneak up on me.
Day 2 – update
Contacted the generator manufacturer All Power America, and they are shipping the part. Plus, the company selling it is refunding $100. Will soon be up and running.

Day 2
Well, my plan to setup the generator was put on hold. After opening the box I found a motor mount was broken. So now I have to return it and get another. But I did do a short walk-through video of the property.
Welcome to Pithole Paradise
On these pages I, the Pithole Hermit, will document my adventures in developing a 3 acre lot near Pithole Pennsylvania. I just completed purchase of the land today. It is mostly wooded with a small clearing. A 12 x 16 shed is already on the property and I plan on converting this to a cabin. There is a 100 foot well with an electric pump, but not electricity to the site. No sewage or other utilities. I am starting with a 3500W generator, which I will set up tomorrow. That is all for now. Here are a few pictures of the site.
