Oh my GOSH.

That's just about the most gorgeously magnificent cabin I've ever seen ANYWHERE.

I sure wish I could see it in person.

One day.

At least with the Sikkens coat it'll still be there now!!!

asy :D

Very nice job you did on reviving the finish of the cabin. And it's a mighty fine looking piece of realestate I might add. Thanks for sharing some pics.  :) 8)

Now I gotta ask what a man has to do to get in on one of those alpaka sweater deals.  ::) 8)

We've worked for 2 batchelors that got lasso'd soon after building their new house. Judging from the pics, you better protect yourself and lock the gate  :D

That's no girlie man roof either, you were up in the nosebleed section with that one!

Thanks everybody , I tried to add up some of the initial cost of this project and a few times had to get some help for a few days especially during the shingling just to get it out of the weather but it was atleast 3 years from the day the logs arrived until the last shingle went on . Then it sat for a few years and then pick away at it then it sat for awhile and then pick away etc.. still pickin away except now it is more exciting as I can see it coming around . It was one of those things in life where its too late to change your mind and also dealing with pine it was a perishable item until the shingles got on . My sister&bro in law helped whenever they could as well .I am just glad I never fell off during the setting of the the purlins.
