What. A. Weekend.

I always say this is my favorite trip of the year with Chris.  It's the end of the school year for me, the beginning of summer, and this trip it was the beginning of our timber frame build.  Progress at the land has been incredible and unstoppable.  The weather this weekend was just about perfect and it was memorable, for sure.

Arriving late Friday night, we were able to put on some headlamps and walk through the timber build to see the updates on progress.  It blew our minds.  Siding and roofing!  We were even able to get on the 2nd floor roof deck.  Our uncles, Randy and Cab, rode their motorcycles down for a visit.  It was Cab's second visit to the land and Randy's first, and things had changed a lot since Cab's last visit.  It was great showing them the process and future ideas and getting their feedback.  Saturday, we also picked out brick for the exterior of the chimney and met with the kitchen designer and started putting the pieces together there as well.

Sunday, we got breakfast (and lunch), cleaned up at the cabin, and headed for the lake.  We spent the day on the lake, relaxing, swimming, and dreaming of the future when the timber frame is complete. We want it to be done so soon so that we can use it more, but at the same time we're relishing every step of the project. I think there will be many more trips to the land in the coming weeks.  Progress is fast and doesn't look to be slowing down.  It doesn't get any better than this.
