Ever wonder what it takes to build a log house. These are pictures of the entire construction of our house from October 2006 to Nov 2007. It might take me a few days to put them all up, so if you're looking at these as I am posting them, check back for the rest.
I'll add these all to me log home set, so it might be easier to click that set to the right and go from there (I'll try to get them in order the best I can).
If you have any questions about the construction, feel free to ask. I was there pretty much everday and then I was there everyday after I fired our general contractor and had to finish his work myself.
Feel free to leave comments.

I was so proud of this. We took all of the legs on the washer and dryer and put them flat. Then just threw them on the deck and without doing anything they were both perfectly level. Yay!
Vince, Charlie and I went out to Heathfield and rode the Cuckoo Trail from Heathfield to Hailsham, turned East on to the Pevensey Levels, went down to Pevensey before looping back through Hankham to the bottom of the Cuckoo Trail at Polegate and riding back to Heathfield. Excellent weather and we had a great day.

Every year Level Six hosts a freestyle kayaking event called "The Level Six Capital Cup" at Bates Island off Island Park in Ottawa, Ontario. Under the bridge crossing the Ontario side is an amazing wave (Champlain Rapids) where kayakers from all over come to play! This year's 7th annual was held April 25/26, 2008.
Let's make a straight line!

High Level Bridge
The Grade 1 listed High Level Bridge was constructed between 1846 to 49. It is a double deck structure of arch and suspension design. The upper railway deck is carried on 6 ribbed arches supported by stone piers; the road suspended from the arches by wrought iron rods.
Following a restoration in 2008 the roadway on the lower deck is now open for southbound (Newcastle to Gateshead) buses and taxis only, reducing the loads on the bridge. Pedestrians and cyclists still use the original footpaths at each side of the roadway.

Collin and mom having it out in the hotel room. Mom frantically tries to reload as Collin prepares to fire.
At one time the CP rail line ran down centre of top deck with north/south streetcars on the outside edges. Streetcars crossed-over at either end to put doors to the centre of the bridge. Currently a seasonal tourist streetcar runs on rails on the top deck at the bridge centre. Otherwise southbound vehicle and pedestrian use only today.

Electricity transformer station with garden on top. Design won in competition in 1961 by John Darbourne. Detailed and built in 1964-7 by Darbourne and Geoffrey Darke for Westminster City Council. Darke the architect in charge for this element. In-situ reinforced concrete construction, grit-blasted, with part load-bearing brick walls clad in multi-red hand-made facing bricks, with raked joints. Roof paved with similar red bricks and planted as a playground and garden. Square plan, largely submerged in the basement level of the Victorian houses previously on the site. Eight large transformers and coolers, with switch rooms, batteries and other auxiliary rooms and staff facilities. Garden on top. Elevations of sub-station in Dudokian style, powerfully massed, with vertical bands of bricks and teak louvres at either end, and projecting central element supported on exposed concrete beams. Two central teak doors with louvres either side. North elevation similar but more regular. On top the garden has a high wall with trellis openings, through which the planting overhangs in the manner encouraged at Lillington Gardens. The transformer station, originally with a football pitch on top, was the first part of Lillington Gardens to be built. It is one of the most abstract elements of the scheme and is a powerful composition. EH Listing

On my walk around Christchurch city, February 16, 2012. The building on the right is to come down as it is realy unsafe!
The one year anniversary this Wenesday, Feb 22 of the deadly earthquake
A magnitude 5.8 followed by a 6.0 magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of Lyttelton on Friday afternoon the 23rd December, 2011, causing liquefaction to once again erupt from the earth and leaving sewerage, water and power out of action in pockets of eastern Christchurch.
A series of intense'' aftershocks have followed, and hundreds and hundreds'' were recorded by GNS in the 24 hours following the two major quakes, said seismologist Bill Fry.)
Taken from the New Zealand Herald New paper
The February 22, 2011 Christchurch earthquake was a magnitude 6.3 (ML) earthquake that struck the Canterbury region in New Zealand's South Island at 12:51 pm on Tuesday, 22 February 2011 local time (23:51 21 February UTC), The earthquake was centred 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) west of the town of Lyttelton, and 10 kilometres (6 mi) south-east of the centre of Christchurch, New Zealand's second-most populous city. It followed nearly six months after the magnitude 7.1 4 September 2010 Canterbury earthquake, which caused significant damage to Christchurch and the central Canterbury region, but no direct fatalities.
The earthquake caused widespread damage across Christchurch, especially in the central city and eastern suburbs, with damage exacerbated by buildings and infrastructure already being weakened by the 4 September 2010 earthquake and its aftershocks. Significant liquefaction affected the eastern suburbs, producing around 400,000 tonnes of silt. The earthquake was reported to be felt across the South Island and the lower and central North Island.
In total, 184 (as from Jan, 2012) people were killed in the earthquake, making the earthquake the second-deadliest natural disaster recorded in New Zealand (after the 1931 Hawke's Bay earthquake), and fourth-deadliest disaster of any kind recorded in New Zealand, with nationals from more than 20 countries among the victims. Over half of the deaths occurred in the six-storey Canterbury Television (CTV) Building, which collapsed and caught fire in the quake. The government declared a state of national emergency, which stayed in force until 30 April 2011.
It has been estimated that the total cost of rebuilding to insurers to be around NZ$15–16 billion, making it by far New Zealand's costliest natural disaster, and the third-costliest earthquake (nominally) worldwide.
The earthquake would ultimately be one of three major earthquakes in a year-long earthquake swarm affecting the Christchurch area, and was followed by a large aftershock on 13 June 2011, which caused considerable additional damage.
