When I arrived the next day to see how things were going, they only had seven rows of the back gable left to do.
Jersey was there and managed to step in some glue. She got a little haircut.
Auntie and Jersey relaxing on this beautiful, sunny, 69° day in November. Yes, 69°. Yes, November. We broke a record for the date.
We’re getting to the short rows now!! Our potato farming phase works with logs too!! Adding the last few rows.
M going up the staging for the last log.
Just like Get Smart, talking on a shoe phone. M talking on her watch!!
Placing the last log. Yeahhh!!
Looking up the wall as the last log is placed.
The back wall.
The kids walking home from school. The boys took the shortcut. The girls came via the driveway.
I brought an afternoon protein packed snack. Deviled eggs and toothachers. Toothachers are another old family favorite that might have another name if you googled it. They are rice crispy squares you make with peanut butter instead of marshmallow and they have a chocolate topping. So with a little sugar, well, maybe a lot, the sweetness might just give you a toothache. Snack at your own risk!!
There’s a right way to cut desserts, there’s a wrong way to cut desserts, and there’s the home economics way to cut desserts. Which way do you suppose Aust cuts?
Good thing I didn’t have my teacher hat on.
Abby showing her friends her room.
Brace added.
Gluing the side seams. A good part of the building of the log home I found, is quite similar to my quilting projects.
Pae built a shim for the two sections that needed 2” on each side. Outside and inside. I call it a shim, there’s probably a more technical name for it.
Time for a little slingshot-ing.
Malachi 3:10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.
The back gable.
I’ll see you later!!
