Paula, I would get this book if you want to do concrete counter tops.

I am interested in constructing my own concrete counter tops. How do I go about doing this? I want them to be stained after they are poured.

DIY

DIY projects make a personal statement. There's something very special about a custom project that we create ourselves.

Get Green! This group is for those who are building (or have built) a "Green" log home using sustainable methods such as solar, wind, and geothermal energy. Also we will be discussing getting back to nature, organic gardening, and other topics.

What a cute pup. I just started nannying for a family with a Bernese mountain pup. He is 7 mos and HUGE. He's a beast too! LOL

Profile Information

Tell us about yourself:

My bride and I share our log home with four cats (2 inside & 2 outside) and one HUGE puppy, Lilly Belle, our very Great Pyrenees. I am the founder and editor of the Log Home Directory. I have been avidly engaged in the log home and timber frame industry for a number of years through my websites (Loghomeology, Log Furniture Directory) and blog. We have three daughters and live in NW Montana in the shadow of Glacier National Park.

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

Yes

2008, the winter without end!
We LOVE winter and all that comes with it, but we also like to see the seasons change eventually. This morning (April 23rd.) we awoke to another morning of 26 degrees and a new blanket of snow.

Don't pay the ransom... I escaped!

It seems like its been about 3 years since I spent any time on this board… I cannot remember the last time I've been this busy - aren't we supposed to be sitting around doing nothing when the economy is this bad?

Spring is trying to make its way to NW Montana. This week we had a day of sunshine and 76 degrees - and the next day it snowed. Just about normal….

Oh well, time to get back to life in the fast lane in rural Montana :-)

No problems with Ravens anymore...

Okay, this post has absolutely nothing to do with log homes, and I know I'm bound to make somebody angry… BUT, as a fella who was born in Pittsburgh and has been a life-long Steeler fan…

Way to go Stillers, WAY To GO! We're off to Tampa!

To my friends in Ba… Continue

Happy New Year All!

We've just said goodbye to one tumultuous year, and I for one am pleased to put that one in the history books and say good riddance! Apparently I'm not alone... The Drudge Report this morning has a headline that states, "Americans Under 70 May Find 2008 Was Their Least Favorite Year".

Before I head out to plow the drive (again)... did I mention that we have 2 feet of snow on the ground, 6" coming today, 10" more tonight and 6" for tomorrow has been forecasted? Global warming? Anyway, I spent so… Continue

Happy Thanksgiving all...

...and as he pulled out of sight, I heard him exclaim, "Happy Thanksgiving to all".

okay, okay... it's not original, but it has a catchy cadence and I'm too busy wrapping up things so that I can take some time off for the holiday... no time to think of a… Continue

At 3:38pm on December 3, 2008, Rick Taron said…: Ha! I know, I get comments like that all the time. It's a lot of work raising the kids. we still have four left at home. The bride wouldn't agree with you about needing sympathy though. I know you were just kidding but they are all great kids. Oops, that was a pun unintended.

Hey, I will work on posting some pics. Stay tuned. thanks for the welcome.
