New Cabin
2/07/07 - 4th Day - After Breakfast. The weather has greatly improved, at least for a little while. The sun has been out and shining over the last four days, and the last two have been in the 70's. We are supposed to have another day today in the 70's before it dips down a bit cooler again.
Several months ago you will remember that we broke ground on Josie's cabin. Last month the men got together and put up the "platform" on which the cabin will be built. Yesterday, four of us got together and began framing up her cabin. Here are the pics.
These first couple are from us putting up the platform about a month ago.:
Ok, from here we will see the framing we did yesterday...
This is the first wall up.
Second wall is up...
At this point I believe all four walls are up and we are going to begin with the roof rafters.
One side of the roof rafters up.
Picture taken this morning from Josie's current camp spot, looking towards her little cabin in the woods. In the foreground you can see her little bridge across the creek. (The pieces of OSB siding on the cabin are temporary for strength and square-ocity)
Ok, so that is what we were doing yesterday.
Hope all is well where you are.

I'm so thrilled for Josie! David and I built our home ourselves, just the two of us as unfortunately we don't have a community of believers. But it's a good home nonetheless. Looking at your pictures brought back memories. Good work, guys!

p.s. I plan to make it to Ranch Fest and look forward to seeing all your progress.
