Thanks much for that.

I think that last week the air temp came close to that summerish 65 near the cabin. But the snow is too spotty down below to ski up, and yet the road to my road is not open to drive it either. And given that I want to haul in some supplies and equipment to work with this summer, I’m waiting for them to get it open before making the trip from out here in Nebraska. Soon though!

best,

Mark

Farewell to Geocities! I lost 2 old sites that were there too – but it was time.
Link updated in the post.
It felt chilly in NJ this morning, but when I read your page and find that “given that there is still 6 feet of snow near the pass (as of May 23) and that crews have not yet started clearing the road over the pass,” it immediately warmed up to a summerish 65 degrees.

I’m just fropping a comment to say that the URL for my cabin linked in your kind entry has not changed to: http://www.mvr1.com/timberframing/timberframecabin.html

The old host is shutting down so I put it up under my own domain.

Probably the land is the key bit and this might not be such a bad time to buy some if you can find a bit you can manage to afford. But if simplifying your life is the idea, make it close to home and build very small.

Hi!
I just found your blog and I love it! My husband and I are in the beginning stages of building a cabin in Vermont. We’re blogging about it at http://www.newenglandcabin.blogspot.com.
I’d love to be on your blog roll!

Thanks for talking about my site! I think the only thing I have to say by way of the zen of cabin building, is start small so that it doesn’t seem like too much all at once. I’m not sure how far you are from where you would want your cabin, but I also found it helpful to be able to make the frame at home and haul it to my site. I say these things to facilitate turning your desire for a project like this into actual action. Hope they’re of use!

best,
Mark
