Fall, has arrived.
It’s a great time of year.

One of the many benefits of cabin living
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T10:21:42+00:00
A log cabin sure does blend into the environment, doesn’t it?

Worn paint
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T10:21:40+00:00
What is your opinion of the paint finish seen in this photo?
A) I love it just like it is
B) I’d put a fresh coat of paint on everything
C) I’d remove all the paint and have a clean natural wood finish.

Heresy! Brick chimney on a log cabin?
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T10:21:39+00:00
Here’s proof that a brick chimney can look good on a log cabin… it’s tough to do, most that attempt it, fail.
It’s an unspoken rule that log cabins must have a stone chimney, I’ve never built anything but stone on the cabins that I have built, but here is a photo that shows there are no absolute rules with cabins.

Siding on a log cabin
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T10:21:37+00:00
I do like this cabin.
I’m one of those who likes nice painted wood on a cabin as much as I do their more rustic natural wood cousins.
But, I’m a little confused why the preservationists of this cabin started their siding as low on the house as they did… I would have started it higher up where the triangular gable end of the cabin began.

An inexpensive log cabin restoration
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T10:21:35+00:00
Here’s a bright and cheerful cabin.
She has been through several phases in her life so far… likely a rustic cabin when first built… then later on she was whitewashed… and later covered over with siding (when everyone lived in log houses, no one wanted to live in a log house).
Today the cabin’s owners have removed the siding on the front of the home to show those pretty logs to the world once more.

How would living in a log cabin change you?
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T10:21:34+00:00
It’s a question worthy of thinking about… just think about living in a home built directly from items provided in nature… located in a natural environment. I’ve done it myself, trust me, it’s life changing.

Boldness and log cabins
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T10:21:33+00:00
Here we have a refined arched window on a rustic log cabin.
I know that I am not supposed to like it.
It’s certainly not traditional, and yet, for some reason I can’t stop looking at this image.
It’s a a bold move to do something like this… sometimes… bold moves can really work out.

Hewn log cabin
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T10:21:29+00:00
A hewn cabin compliments the landscape, unlike so many other structures.

Whitewash
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T10:21:26+00:00
A whitewashed cabin… oh my… she is so fine.
Most people love wood so much that they just can’t ever bring themselves to painting it. I’m often torn myself… but I can say that I’ve never seen painted wood that looked bad.
