Togue Progress

We've made huge strides on the Togue project.  The pine on the ceiling is half complete, and it looks really neat so far- very barnish and worlds better than the white tile:



If all goes well, the ceiling will be complete tomorrow.  That's the easy part.  The hard part will be *cough* rebuilding-the-wall-and-floor *cough*


The wall had to come out so we could jack the cabin up off the ground, and the floor had to come out so we could access the substructure.  It should only take a couple of days to replace the wall and sheathe in the floor, and then once we add new hardwood, it'll be absolutely amazing.  I'm also excited that we're replacing the old door with a window instead.  The door never really worked anyway, and the window will let some nice afternoon light into the cabin.  We'll eventually rebuild the crumbling fireplace chimney, as well, but that will be a future project.

That's all of our rebuilding news for today!  It's been a pretty quiet day in the woods otherwise.  We did have a gang of loons go crazy for fifteen minutes this morning; check out our Flickr set for a few more pictures.  (While you're there, take a look around our other photos as well!)
