Thanks for the warm welcomes.
I do have to admit that not having to notch the logs makes me want to investigate the butt & pass style.
I nearly forgot. If anyone would like to see a couple of pics of my Great-Grandfather's log house (as well as read a little bit about him) you can go here: http://www.oldstagecoachstop.org/webgeezer/Gazette07/Gascozark.pdf
The big picture of the farm can also be found here: http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg283/ramcharger_dodge/Vintage%20Pics/Jonesfarmpartial.jpg
The log house is in the foreground with the semi-circular porch. Directly behind is a 2 story 3-car garage with an upstairs apartment. In the extreme background of the picture you can make out a road running across the top of the picture. This road is Rt. 66.
I hope you enjoy the pics.
