Still crankin' along

Darlene has been up this week and it's been mighty nice having her share in the work. She's on her last spring break from school before she moves up permanently in June.

There's been lots to do and now with an extra pair of hands it makes the job easier. We cut some trim for the cabin and installed a bunch of wood in different places around the cabin.

It's been great having her here to put her 'stamp of approval' on the progress so far. Of course, not everything meets her standard...she a tough one to please!









We're still working on the cedar tree that will adorn the loft area. Lots of bark removal and peeling has made for a nice looking feature. Using an old draw knife makes the work a bit easier. Once the bark is removed then we'll set the tree in place one last time and anchor it down.









We BBQ'ed some hamburgers for supper the other night and enjoyed sitting on the viewing porch watching the mountains. A bottle of wine topped the evening off nicely. KD, the wonder dog, stays close when hamburger is on the menu.

Today we had sheetrock delivered. We're not using much but it was nice to have the boom truck easily deliver it to the second floor. I'll be installing it next week.

Posts are not as frequent because we're moving at a slower pace so we save up before we post.

More coming,
