Last trip of the season.

In my last trip I finished framing the roof and framed the mezzanine. That means that the main framing of the cabin is almost completed. I still have some blocking to do and frame the front deck. I also installed 4 more panels of wall sheathing, and if we get a nice weekend we might go once again and try to install some more wall sheathing.

Since overnight temperatures are dropping and the water taxi company is not running scheduled weekday trips in the fall I've decided to put the project on hold until next year.

I did my best to prepare the structure for the winter with a tarp on top of the roof framing and the east gable wall which should be the one getting the most rain.

Here are the pictures (I did not take that many and the lens of my camera (iphone) was dusty so the pictures are not great, but you get the idea), enjoy...
