Happy Fall! We're Still Working Hard!

Welcome back once again! The work is going very well even though it's getting colder! Pictures below!


Another big difference from home in colorado is different colors during fall!
Had the insulation guys here to start on the wall insulation the other day and they're about 1/3 done.

It's Looking Better Every Day!

Welcome back everyone!! I apologize for the delay in updating the blog, its been a really busy couple of weeks her in Denver for me. But anyway, here are the latest pictures from the project!


---My mom staining the outdoor siding. Also, a quick background behind the siding. Instead of making a full log cabin with full logs you can just buy log siding for a house. They come natural and you can stain them whatever color you want.
 -----Staining logs
 ----This is the celling of the porch which if you remember from past posts this wood is the same wood that came off of the main living room celling.  Oh, and a plug for some outdoor speakers. We haven't figured out if we want to do flush mounted speakers in the celling or speakers off the wall.
 ------Beginning to pour the floor for the garage.
 -----About ready to pour
 ------1/4 of the floor poured
 -----Final garage floor for the two car garage
