Keep on posting pics of the progress. It may be coming along slower than you'd have hoped but take your time and do it right. It looks like your doing just that.

I enjoy watching your progress. As in most things, hard work takes its toll, and progress becomes slower. It's looking good, don't rush it. Good luck!

I enjoy this thread whenever you update it. I really regret never developing any carpentry skills. But then again everybody got to make a living.

Working out the details of my "Thomas Jefferson Stairs" while riding in the passenger seat of a pick-up truck...  I'm probably going to be home this weekend, so I figured if I took some dimensions and made a sketch I could build these at home and haul them up to the cabin in the truck. We'll see how they do...

Not a tremendous amount of progress because we've both been very busy with our jobs and doing a lot of travelling. When you've been on the road all week, the last thing you want to do is travel up to the cabin to do even more work, still... We finally started doing the siding on the front and got a few other things done. Front siding started. This was actually a lot of work.  We also got the footing poured for the grilling deck off the kitchen. (I know it appears to be sloping a bit too much in the picture, but I'm going to correct that when I drop in the 6x6 posts that will also support the roof over the grills.)  Of course if you are going to work you've got to eat and relax. Nothing better than burgers on the hibachi, a nice fire and some adult beverages with your sweetheart.  Cleanup time is fun too. She really likes the outdoor rainwater shower.

Once I bought the wood stove and placed it in the cabin, and then thought about where the rest of the furniture was going to go in the small space, I quickly realized that everything was just too close. To alleviate this problem I came up with the idea to build an alcove for the stove. This will also simplify the routing of the chimney, which now will simply run straight up and out the little alcove roof and bypass the upper roof overhang. So Mrs. Irish and I had to pour some foundations and and get out the tools this weekend... Weather permitting we are taking a 4 day weekend next weekend and should manage to get quite a bit of work done. I had to frame the opening on the inside and carefully measure  Pic of the exterior framing. Once we get the roof on it and everything blacked in, I will cut the hole.  Of course if you're going to work hard at pretending to be a weekend framing carpenter, you need to so a little of this...  I honestly would rather sit on my back deck on the mountain than be on a beach any day. I can't wait to move up here full time.

I would rather be tried by 12, than carried by 6.

Very nice and I agree 100% with the sitting on the back deck statement.
