First Fire


We lit our first fire in the newly completed fireplace on Monday, July 26th. Nice to see smoke from the cabin chimney for the first time.

Little Kid


I feel (and look) like a little kid sitting with my feet hanging over the edge of the loft in the cabin. Soon the particle board interior walls will be covered with beautiful cypress paneling.

Radiant Floor


The radiant floor plumbing was installed last week throughout the main floor of the cabin. This is a shot looking down at part of the great room floor. Soon it will be covered over with reclaimed heart pine floor boards.

Fireplace Stonework Complete


The fireplace stonework was completed this week.

For me a cabin is not really complete without a fireplace, so this is a big milestone!

Fireplace Work Continues


The masons are working on their last project . . . the cabin fireplace stonework. We are hoping to have a little fireplace party when we arrive in Colorado next week.

Loft Floor Complete


The Loft floorboard installation is complete.

Chimney Capped


Here is a view of the chimney cap from the peak of the cabin roof. Looks like a stormy day in the background!
