Not that I haven’t done it before, but it reminds of me of how much I miss doing things outdoors. The last few weeks have been pretty productive though, we’re making progress each time we work on the cabin. The support posts are in place and the sill logs are almost ready to be put on. A few more pictures taken last night after we moved this monster of a Post Oak log into place.

We were quite proud of our accomplishment! Actually, we were able to dig 5 of the 6 holes and pour concrete into them as footings for the support posts which will come later.
