Good Afternoon!
My husband, Donn and I took the class September 2016. The logs are peeled and we are preparing the ground for a slab will all the plumbing etc... to start piling logs on. Very excited - slightly exhausted.

Hi Shawna and welcome,
Come on over to the Members side of the forum and start your build thread!
Sarah
Welcome Shawna and Donn,
Sounds like you have a great start on your home.
Dave
Finally, pulled the trigger. Its been almost 7 years of lurking around the website and forum to convince me to get my ass to Vegas. Plans a little more focused so I thought now is as good a time as any. Saw a few people were coming to next months class. Look forward to meeting everyone. I will be coming in from Northern California. Plan is to build locally in the Sierras somewhere. Chris
Excellent plan. Where in the Sierras is the bullseye?
Welcome aboard.
Thanks for the hospitable email. Planning involves bullseyes? And actually making decisions? Oh no, what have I gotten myself into here????
I like just the planning.... Well my bullseye(S) is probably south of Tahoe and north of Fresno. And eastern side seems to have less fire threats.
I think I will have to narrow that down. But all in good time. My intention with log building is in support of a nonprofit so I will not be alone when
the arrow finally strikes its target. (Metaphors are too much fun.) Wanting space enough to develop a camp like setting for children. Maybe
even include a treehouse and things fun.
Sounds like sunny southern Oregon to me. I suppose some folks have an affinity for their attachment to Sacramento. We'll put up with you anyway. Can't wait to meet you on the member's side.
Sunny Oregon, isn't that the stop just before heaven? Sacramento is too hot and flat for my liking. Seeking a little altitude for more moderate temps & more nature's ambiance. I want to thank you for your open minded hospitality aka tolerance, LOL. If I feel welcomed now what happens on the 'other side?' Life will never be the same......
Life really will never be the same! It is wonderful :)
I suppose I'm out of sequence here but oh well. Born and raised near Sacramento, Ca. Moved to Arcata, Ca to attend school for 3 years, got married and went to work for the USFS in Portland, Or as a wildlife biologist. Moved to Michigan for a year then back to California for work. Biologist, teacher, electrician, retiring next year and moving back to Michigan.
The wife and I have spent a ton of time on Zillow deciding what we like and can afford. Everything gravitated back to open floorplans with covered porches, log cabin kits and here. We learned a lot just browsing the site, which I still do daily (lots of threads and ideas). Buying a smaller home with more property is the current idea, giving us elbow room to build after.
welcome Mr Lightfoot. is your first name Gordon? :)
glad you're here
We might somehow be related, Gordon. My Brother Bo and I have an Uncle Harvey who is rumored to be somewhat lightfingered. He is Cousin Tom Featherstone's stepfather but we like him anyway.
We'll talk more on the member's side and you can feel free to stop in anytime you are up this way and we can do a DNA test or somethig to try and get you officially into the Nut family tree.
PS... Welcome aboard. You'll most likely enjoy class and like moving on with that log home thing that you've been thinking about.
I was almost named Harvey Herod... Too bad, I might have gotten a job as a news anchor or something.
I would have made a great weatherman.
Howdy my name is Ron, have not attended the class yet. Plan on taking it next year. Me and my wife just closed on our property in southern Colorado last month. I'm excited to start the process of building our cabin in the mountains. I have been reading a lot but have just now started to post. Would love to see some pictures of your cabins and the ones in process. Looking forward to using the forum more.
Welcome to the family, Ron! We're in north Alabama, building a 40x40. About to start our 7th course- which is our second floor. We're building it with block and tackle, hoping to get the roof on this year, but that date will probably slide by a month or two.

Hello all,
I'm Guy...living in Florida for 16 years and longing to get back to mountain living. I am looking in NC to build there.
Hello everyone,
After ten years living in Alaska, and dreaming of building a log cabin, hope to start to making it happen in the next year or two, but instead on a special plot of land down in the Pacific Northwest.
Welcome Ron, Guy and larkspur. You are in a good place with some new friends. Great to hear your dreams...and looking forward to seeing them come together.
Thanks for the pictures Mudflap. It is great to see the work and see it coming together.
Hi all! My name is Aaron and I'm looking to attend the February classes. I'm awaiting word from two friends (hopefully there are enough spots if we all confirm!) but I'm def in.
They will usually work in an extra person or two if you pay full price and sit two to a chair... Welcome home Aaron.
Welcome Aaron! You will appreciate the class. I hope at least one of your friends can join you, even better with two. Enjoy!
Don’t wait on someone else to fulfill your dream.

Hello all.
After wanting to attend the class for years, I finally signed up!
I live in Western North Carolina and intend to build within the next few years.
I look forward to learning from you all.

Another Steve W . . . . I'm going to need to be specific from here on out
