I know...It's been awhile, but here is the latest!!!

First of all, I apologize for the lack of blogging in the past two months.
Things have slowed down a bit with all the rain and mishaps of some of the workers.
We won't go into detail, but we are back up running full steam ahead.
We are hoping the cabin will be ready for move in the last of May or the latest June.
So for everyone out there checking us out...here are the latest pics!!!


Here is a pic of the somewhat finished exterior.
Rodger was showcasing the beauty that is that HUGE retaining wall...LOL

Couldn't resist...a view from the deck. Mount Le Conte,
the tallest moutain in the Smokies (as well as the entire Eastern US), is visible to the left.

View from inside the cabin. The stairs go up to the master bedroom. In the picture, you can see employees of Cold Springs Paint and Stain applying the clearcoat.


This is the picture window in the master bath.

It was hand crafted by a local artist. Beautiful, isn't it?

This image reflects the local terrain that originally attracted Tina and Rodger to this area.
This started out to be a surprise to Tina from Rodger, but since she has taken over the construction management, it was hard for him to keep it from her!!!!




Tina walking up the stairs from the first floor to the main floor (isn't my momma pretty??!!!). The basement has a bedroom, bathroom, living area as well as the garage and storage areas.



More views from the main floor (and same workers from before).



The side view of the master bedroom.

More master bedroom.

In between the two windows is where the bed will be.


Master closet.

Rodger thinks Tina is doing a "swell job" in scheduling activities to coincide directly after each other.

For Example:

The clearcoat finish was completed this morning and the cabinets arrived this afternoon!!!

Rodger has promised to send me more pics as he takes them so check back again soon and I promise more updates, more often!!!

Thanks for checking us out!!!! ~Jill~
