Thanks for the reply, Josh. It just goes to show that there are some great people living behind log walls! My information is on the way. Dan

Tell us about yourself:

2009 will be retirement from Medical Services / EMT / Firefighter. Recently WON a log home which makes retirement a much more attainable dream. Enjoy motorcycling (Honda VTX-1800) and photography. Plan to do a lot of both going forward. Enjoy long distance riding. If you are in the Lake City, Mi. area and ride, make contact. Always willing to get out on two wheels!

Are you lucky enough to be living in a log home?

YES! Just WON one in northern Michigan

Also, we decided to replace the kitchen, so we knocked everything down except the island to use as a work table. You are defiantly right about the islands. At home we do not have a island and it is very cluttered. When this cabin is done, it will defiantly have a island.

We also stayed up there camping last weekend. It is starting feel like home.
Just as you said, "The first quiet night that you get to relax by the fire and enjoy the quiet will let you know that you've come home."
I think all of this work will pay off.

Good luck selling your farm downstate, and have fun at your new log home!

At 7:41pm on October 22, 2008, Shelley Martinez said…: You are close to us! I'll be over to have coffee - ha,ha!! Like you & your wife, we are "weekend warriors" at our log cabin for now. We still have quite a few years till retirement but our dream is to ultimately live in Northern Michigan. I think winter is easier in Northern Michigan if you keep busy at activities. We ski, snow shoe, find festivals, go to the parks, etc and winter becomes fun. Have you checked our that Traverse Magazine site "My North" yet? They have activities listed by interest, city, and month. So maybe you can help your Texan wife find some fun this winter!
(On Nov. 15th in Grayling - they are having a christmas parade / festival.)

At 10:15am on June 24, 2008, Shelley Martinez said…: Dan - that is a great story on how you won your log home! Looking forward to seeing your move-in photos!

At 3:55pm on June 18, 2008, Neighborhood Host said…: Congrats on the good fortune! You guys are living proof that counters the conventional wisdom of "no one ever wins those things."

Pictures coming soon??
