The Cabin - Day Three

We have completed day three on the cabin and finally it is completely painted and all of the trim is up.  We are working on the soffits now and after coming up with a way of leveling an extension ladder on uneven ground, not very safe, today we will have the use of an extension ladder that has moveable legs that can be adjusted to level the ladder.  I am very happy about this because it means Tim will be a lot safer working on the ladder.  The past couple of days were nerve racking when we were dealing with the uneven ground and the "rigged" ladder.  We did get the soffits done on the front of the cabin.  Today I realized that the cabin's paint scheme is similar to the cottage at Lake Geneva that we use to live in during the summer when I was little.  It is also the same color as my Grandma Colley's house was at Lake Geneva when I was growing up.  It's cute and I love it.  I took a couple more pictures of our view since there was such a big change.  We woke up to low clouds so that the mountains could not be seen at all.  By the afternoon the clouds were gone and the evening views were beautiful again.  Today's goal is to get the rest of the soffits up and painted and with the use of the leveling extension ladder we should be able to complete it!  Check back tomorrow and see if we did!
