Siding, Part I | The Logs' End
https://thelogsend.wordpress.com/2016/09/17/siding-part-i
The Logs' End. A Log Cabin Chronicle. September 17, 2016. Siding, Part I. Lest Winchester take over the blog again, I thought I’d better post an update. Truly, there hasn’t been much to post about. Work is being done, it just isn’t very exciting work. I thought about posting mudding/sanding pictures to see if you could spot the differences in mud patterns, but that seemed a bit of a stretch, even for me. The rental place gave us this one because the one we reserved came back from its previous job broken&...

The Dark Side of Dusty Lane | The Logs' End
https://thelogsend.wordpress.com/2016/02/24/the-dark-side-of-dusty-lane
The Logs' End. A Log Cabin Chronicle. February 24, 2016. The Dark Side of Dusty Lane. Most people reading this are probably already aware of the fact that those who live in rural northern climates have a few extra seasons beyond the usual winter, spring, summer, and fall. Just in case you’re not aware, one of those extra seasons is Mud Season. Guess what happens to Dusty Lane when it soaks up a lot of rain, snowmelt, and frost from below? While Brandon was working, he had a visitor. When she had given he...

Siding, Part II | The Logs' End
https://thelogsend.wordpress.com/2016/12/10/siding-part-ii
The Logs' End. A Log Cabin Chronicle. December 10, 2016. Siding, Part II. Well, this has been a long time coming. We did finally get the siding done (as much as we bought, for now), but we have been dodging rain pretty much every weekend for the last two months. North Idaho logged one of the wettest autumns on record. Not to mention that as the season got later, working outside became colder and darker. Continuing on down the wall. As you can see, there will be a Siding, Part III (or more) post sometime,...

Just in Time for Christmas! | The Logs' End
https://thelogsend.wordpress.com/2016/12/14/just-in-time-for-christmas
The Logs' End. A Log Cabin Chronicle. December 14, 2016. Just in Time for Christmas! Merry Christmas from the Shouse! We have snow, we have cold, and we have… a Christmas tree! We got a new remnant that was just the right size and color for $50. We have no idea why it was so cheap — no other remnants were. That must have been one of God’s Christmas gifts to us. The following day, Brandon started a marathon flooring installation day. The hardwood went together nicely. The furniture has been in our storage...

https://thelogsend.wordpress.com/2016/08
The Logs' End. A Log Cabin Chronicle. Monthly Archives: August 2016. August 3, 2016. Winchester here. I don’t know what got into mom and dad. I heard a friend say lately that this bloggy thing hadn’t been updated in a while, so I thought I’d help out. I’m good at helping out. See me back there, helping out? Supervising, really. I’m a good supervisor. Maybe this is special dust, like pixie dust. I got some on me, but nothing happened. I didn’t think it was very special. Coming Out of Hibernation. December...

Revenge of the Kitchen Tools | The Logs' End
https://thelogsend.wordpress.com/2016/10/07/revenge-of-the-kitchen-tools/comment-page-1
The Logs' End. A Log Cabin Chronicle. October 7, 2016. Revenge of the Kitchen Tools. Well, after this invasion of the shop tools into the kitchen, the kitchen tools have been plotting a revenge. The opportunity came when it was time to put some texture on the walls. Brandon happily delegated finishing the walls to me. Since our drywall/mudding job was “amateur,” we knew we would want to texture the walls to help hide any, um, imperfections. So off I went to watch videos and figure this out. This is what ...

Coming Out of Hibernation | The Logs' End
https://thelogsend.wordpress.com/2016/04/30/coming-out-of-hibernation
The Logs' End. A Log Cabin Chronicle. April 30, 2016. Coming Out of Hibernation. I know my posting has really slowed down since we got moved in here at Christmas. That’s because our pace of work really slowed down. You can maintain a pace like that for only so long, so by year-end, we sort of looked like this…. One of the first orders of business was getting the kitchen functional. It took several weeks to get it from this…. 8230;to this…. We’ve been scouring Craigslist for deals on all the things ...
