Hope you day went well with the roofing. I was worrying about your cabin layout. Have you thought about it yet? Will you have a loft and indoor bathroom? If so, what will you do about septic?

floor plan as follows, bedroom loft, one master bedroom downstairs, full bath with a 48inch shower, toliet, sink and water heater. Kitchen with stainless sink, dishwasher, fridge, and some kind of nice counter tops....and a DEN. With huge walls for a lot of my mounts----pic's in a little while got to grill now:-)

Thanks....i really like the metal roof . Should sound really good on a rainy night at hunting camp....
TODAY___changing oil in my truck today, unload all the cabin building tools out of the back of it, and wash and clean up my nasty truck..........been too busy buiilding a cabin to take care of my truck.

And then packing etc. , plus Easter weekend, got to go to church on Sunday with my family. So.......with cabin in the dry ....so i can rest better at night and on my trip.

Looks awesome. I'm so jealous, I would love a roof over my cabin. I got walls right now at least.
