Gotta brag up the new place

[wagoneer]

Hey,

Sorry, but I gotta show off a bit. We're pretty pleased with the way the new place is coming along. This should beat the tent in the summer and the old (1950 8' x 20') trailer in the winter.

That looks great! Did you have any problem w/ bldg. inspector because you used logs for your porch columns? I wanted to do that and he said it wasn't code. I didn't think he was right, but I wasn't in the mood to argue with him at the time.

Hey, thanks everyone.

The place is actually in Oscoda county, near Lewiston.
Specs are basic, two bedroom, one bath, with a loft and one big open kitchen and living room area. The footprint is 32' x 28'.

The builder is right in town, it's called Cripple Creek builders. He mostly builds shells with a finished exterior and leaves the inside including plumbing, electricity, flooring, etc. for you to complete. The porch posts were actually his idea. I never considered the fact that some building dept's might not like it.

Sweet place ya got there. I like the siding.

You are going to have some great times there I am sure.:)

very awesome. is this a hunting camp or just a vacation gettaway?

[wagoneer]

Hunting will be a big part of it, but there are lots of other activities that will go on here. Riding dirt bikes, cross country skiing, fishing, and hiking are all likely activities.
