Yes we did have a great time,  twice. :)
I kept bringing up stuff Pappy could be making.  But, "that it would add an hour to each day." By the end of the day, Pappy was working till 8pm. :D

Got all the logs move down to the camp site, sorted and stacked! Should be able to start building before Aug. I hope!

My old 84 was sure put to the test. The old baby had 4ft of framed replaced about a month ago...I guess my welding is good  8)

I got my corners and door frames installed this past Saturday. They went up pretty good. Eh pappy, look familiar?  :)

I was fishing in front of my cabin yesterday morning for trout and caught this salmon. Very early for salmon, this river gets a fall run which usually starts around the mid-late August..I was very suprised!

I was able to get a few logs put in this weekend and also installed my front window frames. Pull another salmon out yesterday morning in front of the camp. Going to cook him up tonight!
Heading back up in 2 weeks for 4 days, should get a bunch of rows done!

Pappy, no roof this year...that's next years project. Next spring I will be cutting my purlins and getting the roof done. Will be water proof by next fall.

If I was to get it done next year that mean I would have too much time to fish next year..HAHA
