Just a quick note as a Newbie. Most of the work was done a few years, located in the Southern Tier Western NY. Only get a month or so of Summer time seasonal usage. Off Grid, no well... Have messed with systems since she was built... Always looking to learn, offer up a few suggestions.

Thanks for the note! Good question. Yes, but not on this computer. I will have to see if I can find them. Here is how the interior was done.

Thanks, can't lay claim to building her. Actually only 20X24 with 10 of front porch under roof. My design built by a local contractor who for years erected log cabins around the country. The side porch was recently roofed over to reduce the snow load and melt issues that pushed the water up against the side of the cabin creating water damage. This year is new 3000W Honda Gen, electric water heater and a 500 Gal above ground water tank. Got tired of hauling water and the propane water heater sucked. We will see!

Unfortunately I do need connectivity and have horrible cell phone service. Anybody have any experience with Sat Phones? Globalstar or Iridium? Quite a wooded area with a Northern exposure. Just curious.

I was stirred to look for some construction photos and that was scary. I did not remember that this was started in the summer of 2006! How time does fly... Unfortunately I did not capture some of the earlier photos, but here is a bit of what I have.

Further finishing. The spiral staircase worked out well given the space.
