Well Rance, it has been a while since I have been on. So catch me up, which island is this on? Will this be your primary residence or your "summer home"? My in-laws have a log home they built log by log. I don't know the technical term but maybe something like hand turned or hand peeled? I developed a great respect for the art of building log homes after looking through the photos of the whole process.

Smoke from the interior has made it out to Southwest Alaska today. The sun has a brown hue to it.

Vance - the cabin looks great! All that hard work must be so rewarding. Keep up the good work Do you expect (hope) to have it down by winter?

How do you guys (well, Rance in this case I guess) plan for future shrinkage in height of the log wall?
Anything for a single story place?

Most people shrink with age too, so it should work out well...
