Cabin progress report

Image
July, and with the liggers (clients) gone, Cliff and the boys can get down to serious work. With temperatures in the high 20's, the foundations (slab) goes off quickly for the main house and garage and work starts on stacking the logs (building the walls).

... more about the cabin.

Hmm, Blogs are sometimes tempremental, so we'll try a new posting for the rest of the photos. Meanwhile, back at Snow Goose Court ... those tree roots are still causing trouble. So, its back home & toss another cow on the bar-b-q.

Log Cabin update

Image
This May, Trix & Caroline went back to Oregon to see Ren, the land at Bend and of course to check out Ren's new friend Laurie. They went "cattle class", with a nightmare flight change in Chicago (again), which took 2 days to get over. (Hmm, no need to explain why I didn't go with them !) They recovered, Laurie & her daughter Chloe were lovely, the weather turned out ok & the logs arrived at Bend. Whilst a nieghbour stops by to check out a stubbon tree root, Ren & the girls are invited to check out a nearby cabin project that Cliff (out general contractor) started earlier ... Like an old style barn raising, there are no spectators & Ren was soon hard at work on construction while Trix & Caro lent a hand with the refreshments.
