No, this is not a prison, and yes, we know that also belong to a house window! But somehow impress us with this massive wood walls and no windows (or perhaps because) every morning and again. Slowly but surely, our project forms, which is also good if you Considering that we will be back in two months in Switzerland. Without the help of Nicole and Denise, we would still not ready. According to our common
seeds holidays we have given full speed for four days and are actually finished with the walls. Denise showed tireless efforts in the washing of the tribes (with bleach), a very monotonous and strict labor, which Adi way expresses again and again successfully, with the remark that it was women's work ... (a good thing we practiced in front of the church first! ) And Nico was not enough of working with a chainsaw. He was always the first to urged to leave in the morning and the last, wanted to pass the evening after work beer. In short, there were two great and wonderful weeks, we've experienced with our friends. Many thanks again for your visit and help on the site! Today, Sylvain and Johanne with the two kids flew off to southern France, where they are three weeks holiday. This has given us the honor to be a month to enjoy the company of Dali. Dali is now eight years old dog of our Canadian friends. He is infinitely good-natured and affectionate, but also very lazy. His favorite things are lying around and driving. This week we have him, so even with to Baie-Saint-Paul taken. On the way back I got out then about 2 km from the chalet, to run back to Dali. He should at least get a little exercise and have the opportunity to go do his business. The first is the fact Hütetag missed and our negligence in the morning promptly fined. dress up dog ash ... is not exactly what we imagine with gentle compliance to the new day. Adi then graciously accepted the case (for that he must wash finally no strains ;-)). Long story short, the dog did not dream of it, get comfortable with running the home, but ran like a fury behind his beloved Auto ago, probably in the hope that he can jump up somewhere. It was indeed nothing but Dali proved tough guy in the literal sense, for he came only two minutes after Adi at the Chalet. We were amazed not bad on this great achievement that we would have expected him to be honest never. But the poor animal had apparently taken badly. He panted almost the lungs from the body and could hardly stand up. When Dali's condition had not improved after three hours of essential Adi resorted to homeopathy and gave him a gift of arnica. That worked wonders and the next morning was our four-legged friend again the old man.
The fact that our
dwell foreign hosts does not mean such that the busy coming and going out here would subside. Maybe even the opposite is the case, because next week start here with coarser gun. With heavy machinery, its purpose is the dam of "our" lake, which is actually broken in the spring of 2006 to be repaired. This has two very positive aspects. On the one hand, we come as yet to benefit from a small lake in front of our cabin and on the other hand, we can place any of the purlin using one of these monsters. This strain is the highest, but also the greatest and most difficult, we block. Because our skyline does not exactly in the middle runs to the hut, we appreciate it as a realistic, this strain for two (or three) and fit without mechanical assistance. (On the next Adi "fights" with the eaves purlin.) And here we are at the point which I have already mentioned in the title. Our cabin is developing more and more to the cabin. Although the matrix with 5.40 m to 6.40 m in the interior, much as the Adi planned as last year, has recorded and Johanne mailed. But by her height, design and effort, has moved the whole thing in one direction, the Adi and I had planned did not. The basic idea
was a simple hunting lodge (About the same as in the photo, only slightly larger) without putting up any comfort. In recent weeks, has become increasingly clear that John and Sylvain became a small guest house with toilet, kitchen and maybe even want to take a shower. It means that the walls are insulated with glass wool, that a floor placed on the false bottom, and include new windows in each worth 800 Can. Dollars are to be installed and the cabin or just the log cabin is higher than originally planned and a modern roof structure gets with paneling for the interior view, vapor barrier, insulation and everything else that goes with it. Add to that the not exactly cheap interior and exterior painting, to protect the wood from moisture, fungus and bugs. Nice to Sylvain naturally assume all costs for their additional requests. Adi and I are often a bit torn. On the one hand, we find it fantastic that our works are to be afterwards actually still used and inhabited. On the other hand it seems we have something funny to us in the simple and not too big living room or shower, toilet, bed etc. present. Be that as it may, we still have fun in our project and are excited about what is at the end of it!
