    Wow! Lovely!! And Big Time Progress once more!! By the way, I have been watching you a long time - even since you visited & helped out Bobblehead Homestead. My goodness, if you get frustrated, down or upset EVER just look at what you have already accomplished - and you are so close to the finishing line, even now. You got land, cleared it, built a beautiful large homestead, an entire farm actually; created working outbuildings, got your stock; designed & created your beautiful "forever" log cabin home; got married, created a family from nothing; and now you are entering the home stretch. WELL, WELL DONE! Unless I missed it, please put up the stair railings, stay off the roof, stop falling off stuff, and ENJOY the works of your labor you so very much deserve. Blessings from "occupied" California!!! k-

      Yea .just what she said. Here in New Zealand, I grew up in a House, called a Lockwood..The inside was floor and roof just what you are doing. It Scared me. At night it creaked and cracked. And I looked at the knots ,they had eyes,and faces. Cracked. And cracked.. That House is just up the hill from me now. I remember. I miss. What I'm saying. Is it's your heart. Thanks for sharing. And Teach some..XOXO

    Wow! What a difference the stair railing makes! It is a work of art to me. I could watch you build all day. Your family is fortunate to have you to provide such a beautiful home for them by your own hands! How proud it must make you feel. Hope you can make it by Christmas!

    Love your weathered wood finish. A house with that much wood does need variation. I've seen plenty that don't have any & they're blah.
    In 1997-ish I tackled refinishing 1950s era knotty pine paneling that varnish had turned deep golden color. After sanding cabinets & walls down I put on a white stain that is almost invisible, before coating with Delft poly that hasn't yellowed in 25 yrs. Huge job that turned out to be worth the effort because I found the right product. In 1997 there weren't thousands of reviews to read online. Not one regret for saving custom built cabinets that are now around 70 yrs old.

    The railing looks good. The contrast in grey vs light wood is sharp. The light cover was a great idea. As for the stair lighting, you might want to put the lights on before drilling the holes. I think you'll find that 2 lights on every step will be way too bright. So much better to tape the lights to the risers and check at night before drilling all those holes. Looking forward to the next project on your list.

    It’s hard to tell on camera with shadows and stuff, but your original post didn’t look much different than the next one you did.
    I like the “weathered” look against the backdrop of your tongue and groove, and I LOVE the 3D look of your railings from the main living area ( vs. the flat side as your inside the stairs or upstairs balcony).
    Those blocks for the top of lights are genius!!!
    It’s getting so close, I bet you guys can “taste” it
