Our welcoming sign and address (made by Jon with cedar from one of the trees felled for construction) for the McKenzie River Highway - Jon and Chris placed it right at the beginning of our driveway.

April 2007 - painting trip

On March 24, Jon, Chris and I drove up to do some major painting. We were successful in getting the interior of the house primed and made decisions about color choices from the many color samples we painted on the walls. The first few days were damp, cold and sometimes rainy but we accomplished alot with Chris' help. Fortunately, before Chris flew back to Burbank on March 31, we enjoyed some warm, sunny weather, with even a brief hike one afternoon. Jon and I headed home and stopped at Meg's for Easter.
