October 30 - Old cabin updates

Kevin, Marisa, Tyler, Matt, Big Jim and Rose, and I finished up the work at the cabin yesterday. More stuff to the trash and Goodwill plus renting a storage unit to put everything else into to wait for the new cabin. Demolition of some sort will begin shortly. The fire department is going to use the old cabin for training (not burning though). Skip want to get the cabin down before the snow starts because there is obviously grading to do on the site. So here are some final indoor shots of the cabin.

October 16, 2010 updates

Lots of glass! All of the windows are in now. Plumbing and electrical in process now. The gorgeous view continues! We may have to cut down the stump in front. We had left it for a place for grandkids to jump from. In the photo to the right, those are the concrete piers for the west deck. Remember that deck will be both covered and uncovered

In the picture above on the left, that's the kitchen/morning sun deck

Construction updates

The framing began on September 8 and the floor deck was to be delivered on September 13. Anyone at the cabin in the next 2 weeks will see plenty of action. We met with Skip on the 11th to finalize more 'things'. Skip still says that he thinks he will be done by Thanksgiving, we think Christmas. We picked out a natural cedar stain, indoor trim color and shingles. The water line was troublesome for our cabin , and we're still not sure of the costs on it. Enjoy the pictures.....
