By June of 2003 we were in the process of putting log-siding on the outside
... one board at a time, and a s**t-load of nails, but it was actually going pretty well.

At the same time, the inside was getting "purdied" up with drywall and paint
(I HATE painting!!)

We got as far as being a couple of weeks from moving in when the "merde hit the ventilateur".
But that's a story of its own. If you haven't already read it, you can still do so here...if you're interested.
