A zillion nails.... but its all good


I have stuffed the crack between the logs with insulation and now am starting the laborious task of placing nails every few inches so the chink has something to grab onto.....

One of the last really big steps in the project - the roof!


One thing I have learned during is project is to know when you are going to be beyond your skills - the roof was one of those things that I probably could have done myself but its just too much for me to do safely.
The guys I hired to do the roof have been great - working with all the "character" issues (my goof ups) and working hard.

The roof, the roof, the roof is going on!



Another look at the roof - ain't it great! The foundation and roof will be the only two things that I didn't do myself (with the help of my friends and family of course!).
