Bath Tub Through the Window?

So how exactly do you get a big, 500lb cast iron bath tub into a cabin bathroom? Apparently by lifting it through a window!

Side Entry

This is a shot of the side door entry area in the evening. Remaining work includes bathroom tile (starts today!), countertops for the kitchen and bath, sanding and sealing the floors, and baseboards.

Great Room at Night

This is the great room pictured at night. The electrician has finished his work and indoor and outdoor lights and plugs are all working.

Cabinets Installed

The kitchen and bathroom cabinets (made from Juniper) have been installed and look GREAT. Now we are just waiting on countertops and bathroom tile, which have been giving us difficulty . . . not easy to find good stone quarried in the U.S. these days! Looks like we have the tile figured out and it should be installed starting this week. And we have a line on stone countertops, but the schedule is a little murkier on that.

Railing Detail

Here is a close-up of the loft railing . . . debating whether or not to cut off the little "sticks". Please weigh in!

Mattress Shopping

Took a long road trip to Home Green Home in Ithaca, NY to look at and lie on natural/organic mattresses for the cabin . . . loved them! Mattresses will arrive at the cabin in August.

Loft Railing Construction

The loft railing is being assembled this week. We also ordered the refrigerator and laundry unit, and our sleeper sofa arrived at a Boulder warehouse where it will wait for the cabin to be ready.
