The Cabin That Brent & Jake Built...

This month Brent & Jake started building a little "Bunk House" for a friend of mine who has a cabin up near the Uintahs. The idea started out late last summer as not much more than a "tough shed" idea with emenities. Well....over discussions and after I started the basic plans, it grew. So, they are spending time this summer building a small (432 s.f. footprint) 2-story cabin. The 2nd story is just a 200 s.f. loft.


After 10 days of hard work, it's really taking shape!!! The tall wall in the above photo took 3 tries to get it up. When it fell the 2nd time, it barely missed hitting all of them. (There are 2 other guys helping with the framing.) Their angels were very busy that day!
Their accomodations are the garage of the cabin. But, it has an entertainment center!!! And Brent built a shower (lower photo). He's so inventive (LOL)! Don't think there's anything he can't invent. Love that man of mine!!!! I'll keep you updated on the progress.

Those are some cool pictures. It is neat to see one of the bigger projects that Jake and Brent have done and that we've been hearing so much about. Thanks.
