It's a cabin!


The ridge pole was a lot easier than we thought to get in place. After the ridge pole we started placing the rafters - we got 4 pairs up before calling it a day.

RPSL's! Can you believe it!


After row 16 we moved promptly on to the ridge pole support logs - RPSL's. They where a bit tricky to get over the wall logs (20 feet high) - but we managed.

My Dad's buddy Ron - "Uuurah"


My Dad's buddy Ron - a Marine (there is no ex-Marine's) is also pounding on row 16....

Richard "The Beer Man" lends a hand...


My lovely bride and our good friend Richard Lyman pound away on row 16 - yes - row 16 the very last row!

Ahhh - fall in Michigan


Leaves are falling and there is a chill in the air - WINTER IS COMING AND I GOT TO GET THE ROOF ON THIS THING!!!!
