What a gorgeous day and 75 degrees is the high. A beautiful clear blue sky, by far the best week we have had since I’ve been here. Pat and I continue on the logs at what seems a snail's pace and yet we are staying busy on the south area of the logs. Our all-thread was supposed to arrive today, but didn’t. I will have to go to Telluride at noon tomorrow to meet the truck and get what we need to continue up with the logs. Luckily Tom Bennet had a few 10’ sticks, which we cut in 3rds to start on the south wall, lots of holes to drill and some careful fitting to get the cabin all back together. Some of the spaces between logs are nearly 6” and will require a lot of work to prepare them for chinking.
Greenbay and Joe have started on the roof framing and carefully measure and cut the main ridge beam and mid-span beam over the north bedroom. Won’t be long and we will be ready to put up rafters for the roof. Its takes all 4 of us to get the ridge beam into place using nylon straps, ladders and planks.
