Home sweet home

Home sweet home
I was 68 years old when I built this log cabin to live in on my 40 acres in Oklahoma. The only power tool I used was a chain saw to fell the trees. The rest was all done with hand tools. The logs were squared off with the foot adze I am holding in the picture and the logs were then skidded through the woods by a jackass (ME). Some had to be dragged a quarter mile. The only help I had was a friend helping with the two top courses of logs. The wall was too high for me to do it by myself at that point. Everything is fitted together. The only nails are the ones that hold the roofing on. JUST LISTEN TO THAT OL' BOY BRAG. ;-] And look at all the junk he flung out the door. Why I believe that's a real live redneck.

TEE OF THE WEEK







TEE OF THE WEEK


Here's a great tee shirt that will suit either the racing or chocolate enthusiast. NASCAR 36, the M&Ms car.
Sorry I've been a little slow with the next tale. I've been busy stocking the shelves of both my clothing and bead stores. Drop by and visit. The links are in my cool links section.
I'll get the first part of my next tale in later today.
