Our new sign for The Wick’s Cabin (tiny home) has officially arrived! 🖤🌲 And seeing it against this sunset made it even more special.
It’s similar to the metal sign we have at our campsite, and this one will be hung from a beautiful twisted juniper trunk we found at the tiny home site.
Seeing our name on a sign makes this dream feel a little more real. One more piece of the dream becoming a reality. 🥹🌅
Wick Ranch got a little more excitement than we were expecting with our first flash flood since buying the property. 🌧️
The driveway got completely washed out, and the water changed parts of the landscape in ways we’ve never seen before. It’s definitely going to take some work to clean up and repair, but it was pretty incredible to see just how quickly the landscape can change.
Just another unexpected adventure at Wick Ranch. 😂🌿

We bought 35 acres of high desert in Western Colorado with a dream of building our own ranch from the ground up — and this is just the beginning. 🏡
Welcome to Wick Ranch! We’re documenting the entire journey of turning raw land into our forever home, from the very first projects to the finished ranch. We’re building, clearing, hauling, learning as we go, raising animals, taking on DIY projects, and sharing the good, the bad, and everything in between.
In this video, we’re getting one step closer to our tiny home by building the frame for the gravel bed it will eventually sit on. Instead of going with a traditional concrete slab or pier-and-beam foundation, we chose a gravel bed to help keep the cost of the project down. We spent the day measuring, leveling, building the frame, and getting the site ready for the next step.
The tiny home hasn’t arrived yet, but there’s a LOT that has to happen before it does. This is only one piece of the bigger picture, and we want you to follow along from the very beginning as Wick Ranch takes shape.
If you enjoy tiny homes, ranch life, homesteading, DIY projects, land development, farm animals, and watching a piece of raw land transform into a home, subscribe and come build Wick Ranch with us!

Building the foundation for our tiny home! 🏡🛠️
Before we could bring in the gravel, we had to build the frame that will hold it all in place. We chose this method instead of a slab or pier-and-beam foundation to keep the cost down, and we’re excited to see this part finally coming together!
One step closer to making this little home a reality. 🤍

The night sky never gets old. ✨🌌
One of our favorite things about living in a National Dark Sky area is getting to see the Milky Way like this right from home. No city lights, no light pollution—just millions of stars lighting up the sky. 🤍
We’ll never take this view for granted.
