May 2nd

Posted by PicasaThis is the cedar log we found for the centre post of the house around which the spiral staircase will be built. It was just down the road from us on a new house site that is being cleared. The guy doing the excavation there dragged it over to our place and wiggled it around the house to where it sits in the field. Today I stripped off the bark to reveal the lovely smooth inner skin. You can see the big strips of bark lying on the ground.


















On Friday, Mike and I got one wall up and framed two more ready to go. The walls are framed on the flat floor of the house and then moved into position and lifted up using ladder jacks.

Today it was pouring down in the morning so we both found indoor projects to work on.
