The last wall is now in place. It was a major step in getting ready to place the last beam for the roof. This back wall is mostly windows so that we have a great view to the mountain. It doesn't look like it would be very hard to do because there are so few logs, but they were very labor intensive logs.
With the boom there I decided to take advantage of it on Friday and start chinking (putting the stuff inbetween the logs to keep out cold air, water, etc) up high. Randy stayed safely on ground level and took these pictures.
The chinking continued on Saturday.
Mindy and Jen chinking. Jane arrived to help also.
Zac, Isaac and Brancen did a great job helping Grandma on her side!
Isaac and Trevin found a rope dangling from the second level and thought it looked like fun to play with. Trevin couldn't quite reach it so . . . . .
Isaac gave him a boost!
The fireplace wall was put up on the second level. This is the second contact point for the big beam running front to back. Now only one more contact point out front on the deck to go and the crane can come up to help us raise the beam up. It was a great day Saturday and we accomplished much!
