That has left us searching for methods to honor it's memory.(and harvest any useful bits) We believe we got the ideas, skills, and perseverance to revive the neighborhood with a fresh home where the cabin once stood. We will use our fledgling cyber skills to keep folks posted on any progress we may make.

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Morning..... We finally drove the big green machine down Cliff ave. The Scene has been set for a foundation under the Timber frame!!! Bruce worked as hard as one can to get the hole dug...battling through lots of rock and ledge that simply would not break up!! Four weeks later...</span> we are ready for gravel, forms, and rebar. Its been a trying part of the project, but now that's its done</span>, <span style="font-size: large;">Bruce feels like a new man!! And I'm excited to jump back in and move some gravel. We Keep looking ahead to the raising.... knowing that this is the carrot we are shooting for. We treated ourselves to a wonderful day off yesterday. We hiked around Wolfe Neck's Farm and than proceeded down many back roads to get to Cundy's harbor for fish and chips and a cold beer. We truly live in an amazing place!!</span>Bruce and Louisehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09894631719429953726noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401363258962489019.post-16658611036747318992012-06-15T11:16:00.002-04:002012-06-15T11:20:56.400-04:00diggen for gold.....<span style="font-size: large;">Greetings all Cabin followers..... </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> A quick up date of the job sight. We began digging for the foundation</span> <span style="font-size: large;">about a week ago. Rented a large tractor with a 1500lb. hammer drill on one end. Bruce has been comfortably hammering out our ledge in a protected, some what air conditioned wheel house. He has proven to be an amazing rock digger!!! He takes on projects with ease....stays focused, barely stops for food or water...digs till I kick him off at 8:00pm....trying to keep the neighbors on our side (may have to throw everyone a little note to say thanks for their patience during this very noisy endeavor. With lots of success coupled with some harder rock that may not give way... which could change our design in the studio apartment area</span>, <span style="font-size: large;">will have better idea by the end of today. In any event it looks like we will have the machine for another week!! </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">We found an amazing green, beautifully shaped bottle, in perfect condition. We will research to see what it was used for at some point. Mean while Marley and I wear ear protection and go about our business on the sight. I am busy with some timber work that was left over from last year. Mostly small timbers that are easily movable with out the tractor. Marley moves with ease around finding that perfectly shaded or sunny spot that suits her fancy. I was able to groom her in between some timber work. So all is going great at the Cabin Lives on sight!! Still looking for a new name for the sight. Since their is not a cabin any longer hard to say meet me at the Cabin.... Sweetheart..... Any ideas gladly welcomed!! Stay tuned and take care!!!

Weezie an I tidied up the site, cut down and got rid some trees and brush. We pushed the shed to the back limit, crowded in our tools and crap around it and set up a little cowboy kitchen. We're there most of our days there so we had to nest a bit! </b></i></span></span><br />

Well that has paid off and have strung a number of events out over six months. Sold Wilton Lane for a tidy profit to a great young couple looking for a quiet neighborhood. Moved out of there with multiple landing spots, timbers hauled to a boatyard covered in rubber to winter, the American solution of self storage absorbed a chunk, the Bruce McCarthys volunteered some backyard for the outdoor type overflow,the dump and goodwill were visited plenty</b></i></span></span><i><b><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">, and the critters came with us and the prized possessions to the cozy cabin where we enjoyed the easy winter ever!</span></span></b></i></span><br />
<span style="color: #b45f06;"><i><b><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> Now we are on the final approach as our appraisals are in, building permit in hand, and the bank still is telling us promising things to the point that we went ahead and had the big ass pine tree taken and put power from the house to a temporary pole. We spent our first nite with cooking on the grill and stepping over extension cords. </span></span></b></i></span><br />
<span style="color: #b45f06;"><i><b><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> We are hoping the next few days bring news of a closing date and Bob Crowley showing up with his nail puller and some willing assistants to take the cabin to it's new life as a ranger station at their new yurt camping venture.</span></span></b></i></span><br />
<span style="color: #b45f06;"><i><b><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> Good luck to them,Us, and thanks to Jeff Croft for putting Bob onto us.
