Constructing the House

Logging and Milling the trees was a lot more work than expected!
Bill and Emily making sure the first corner is set correctly.
I guess this is what the ruins might look like in a couple thousand years.


We hauled a lot of rock and mixed a lot of mud to get here.
Getting started with the girters


The first floor joists are up!


Danny and Walter cutting the Locust posts that hold up the floor.
