The Shell is almost UP!

The roof was off for almost two weeks, and during that time we got many many downpours! Most of my time was spent in the basement with the vaccuum. But thanks to lots of help form the parents, Skye and even Chad, I think we are now in the clear, now that the roof is ON!! Now we have to decide on a color...any suggestions????

3 more days and its looking like a house!

Demo and Start of Construction

I can't believe it! The sky actually stopped pouring and the construction has begun at our place! First we had to move out completely....except for the basement. Now we are living in the DOME ( once the greenhouse dome) and a pop-up trailer our neighbor Kurt is letting us borrow. Our bedroom is in the dome, and the "office" and kitchen are in the trailer. Its actually a pretty sweet setup since we will probably be in here until October!

So Marks crew came on tuesday and started the demo of the cabin. What is left is just a shell. They did leave the kitchen sink, the fridge, and the toilet. The toilet looks pretty funny because its all by itself in a big open room! Then they cut a corner of the cabin off, and started to build!

Skye has been hand planing the logs to get the bark off the one rounded side, and to taper the edges. Course he loves the "workout"! Then its just lincoln logs all the way! Once they get as far as the roof they will take the whole roof off and put a new one on! Check it out!
