Everything is a matter of timing.

A year ago we were preparing for the April 19th delivery of our log home package from Beaver Mountain. (See this post. ) It happened to be a beautiful spring day with blue skies and very comfortable temperatures. Not a snow flake in sight.

Contrast that to today’s photos:





Yep, timing makes the difference. We enjoyed a long and productive construction period with the only weather related delays those morning hours spent sweeping standing water off the deck. I don't remember being rained out one day during the entire process. That lasted right through December. Now, in an apparent ying-yang sort of way, Mother Nature is trying to balance the books.
