June 2009: The actual construction begins
After the
long and cold winter the lake remains unusually long ice covered.
Boating and transportation is not possible until early June. With
considerable delay we start construction of the log house. The logs are
peeled and the first layers are laid. George, our foreman, has
everything under control and we are making good progress. The three of
us work with simple tools, lots of muscular strength and elaborate
technique. After 2 weeks 10 rounds of logs are laid and we have reached
the upper floor level.
