Inside Progress

The framing is coming right along. This is a picture from inside one of the bedrooms. You can see the doorway to the hall as well as part of the wall for the bathroom. Up on top of the wall is kind of a shelf, then another wall on top of that dividing the bedrooms. This "shelf" will be a great place to store things for each family - maybe even a few kids!

Randy has been busy chiseling out the logs for the electrical boxes. As we were stacking th logs, they drilled holes down to the basement in the first two logs for the electrical wire to run up from the basement. The second floor will be a little bit more tricky.

We have a flange in place for a toilet!!! This is exciting progress - although the actual toilet is still a long way out. At least I know it is on it's way!!

We even have a bathtub in place with the overflow and drain hooked up. Now all we need is hot water - and a shower curtain of course!

Chinketta

Randy has a new name for me - it is Chinketta! All I do now is put the chinking inbetween the logs and fill in all the spaces so cold air doesn't get in the cabin. The process is coming right along. The downstairs is one wall away from being complete. A picture of the chinking
Randy found this caulking rod to put in the bigger gaps so it doesn't take as much of the chinking to fill it up. Here I am up on the scaffolding 25 feet in the air getting ready to work on the great room walls. You notice that Randy is not up that high with me! His feet are firmly planted on the ground - well I guess someone has to be down there to throw me up stuff and move my scaffolding around.
