Lighter - you might not have time before your first guests -
one thing we found pretty helpful in rental cottages at the beach was a "house book". Usually included info like how to operate electronics, hot tub; when the trash/recycling needed to go out for pickup; any special info from the owners that would make a stay there safer & more comfortable... like how to find weather information, local emergency alerts, and a guide to stores and restaurants.
Stayed in an airBnb in Michigan on our trip. I have to say it was a great experience - they OK'd Knuckles and provided a blanket to cover the couch, minimizing housekeeping after. Owners did ask us to strip the beds and pile on washer/dryer. Probably saves the time the housekeeper is there.
Sounds like you need to SIMPLIFY your life and what you take care of -property wise. It's a goal worthy of putting in as much effort and patience as needed, IMO. I am so glad to be rooted in just one place now! No extra utility bills, insurance, maintenance... or worry.

Dunno when I've more enjoyed reading reviews.

Hops:. I guess I'll shop at the Amish store. The rack in their site looks about 60" high. Beautiful, but weighs almost half of what I can carry on small plane .....almost 13 lbs, and I can carry 30. That's a small issue
Amber, I'm working in a book with appliance info, dive shops, restaurant info/menus, and garbage/water/transportation details. Just spoke to one of my nieces about going on vacation with her this summer. It's been years since we did that, and she's excited looking at pictures. I tried to attach some. Will give it another shot
Keep giving me pointers. I'm relaxing into imperfection. Excited about the blow up boat, and ability to come and go between islands on my own, fish and dive at will.
I've never played on the island. I'm going to play next visit.
Putting appliance info in book Doc s good idea I hadn't thought if, btw; )

PS, Lighter...yes I'd love your carrot ginger soup recipe.
Thanks!
But only when it's not yet another chore to dig up and post.
Hugs,

Hops:
The Amish store has a 48" wide... Xlarge rack, for 82.00, which I think is an OK price for hardwood, and all that height! It goes well over 60" high, and he's holding the last one for me! Weighs over 12 lbs.... was hoping to maybe find a lighter one to carry through airports, on boats, and into taxis, but hey.... your description has me hooked on the real thing.
I pulled up the basic recipe online for THE PLAN's carrot ginger soup. It looks like this one has been scaled back. I think I usually use 5 lbs of carrots, but you can make as much as you like. It's hard to screw this up, and I usually don't leave all the ginger in. I add coconut milk... the real stuff, CHEF's CHOICE is my favorite, in the blue can. It's a decadent bowl of soup, I look forward to cupping in my hands. I have a thing for soup bowls and spoons. Deep, and round.

Enjoy, Hops. Maybe look up THE PLAN on the internet and see if you like some other version, or the real, very large, original recipe.
