    I'm still laughing out loud. Brother Martin, a task master. Chain saws humming morning to dark! Had to holler to the guys..."pancakes don't wait" to get them to stop and eat. Dinner served when they ran out of daylight, eating by the glow of the campfire. It was a privilege to be part of the cabin raising. I salute you all!

      It is so high that animals will no be able to hide under there. Better view and good for a long lived cabin with no moisture problems. We can bank it with snow in the winter.

    another great video, Martin. I love seeing the progress. By the way, those black and white photos could not be more perfect. that is just a fact. you should have one blown up and put in a vintage looking frame and hang it in the new cabin. that should be the first thing you hang up. memories like that are worth more than a truckload of gold and jewels.
