Despite the wetter weather that we have had in July and a few delays in our building schedule, Chinook cottage now has a roof overhead and we're dry underneath.
To keep a natural look we have incorporated several red pine log posts at the entrance and on the front screen porch. Like Snowshoe, we harvested the logs from our property. We had a good friend and a very skilled timber framer help us with the mortise and tenon joinery.
After waiting several days for the rain to stop the roofing crew arrived. It went on in just a few days and with the added colour, the building is really starting to pull together.
The next step is to put in the in-floor radiant heat lines, get it inspected and then pour the concrete floor slab. The plan is to have this step completed by next week. The floor will take about 3 weeks to cure and then we'll be focusing on installing the exterior straw bale and interior walls
