He used a roll of sill gasket between the pt 2x4's and the cement I assume that will take care of anything getting between the cement and shoe or at least that's my understanding :)Off to bed now !!

Quoting: canadian girl for now the cement is going to be the floor .Eventually we will put something on it Keep in mind that cement/concrete is porous and will let ground moisture through. Depending on your location (i.e. type of soil and amount of moisture in it) your cabin may become moist inside. You should "put something on it".
Good luck with your project, and keep us posted.

The way things are looking you are going to have to change the name of this thread to "Dreams can come true!"
Hope you get some good weather and make more progress on your building.
Good luck.

thanks everyone. We weren't able to do much this weekend due to the weather .I am so over winter !! My husband did manage to get the two upstairs walls made home in the shop and we installed them this morning . Although the snow on the trees was beautiful I was wishing it had of been nicer weather to get more building done.Ahh perhaps next weekend:)

We were able to get lots done Friday and Saturday and seem to be on the home stretch and looking forward to enjoying it soon :) Hoping for nice weather tomorrow afternoon so we can do more . All that's left for this stage is to fill in the last wall, install the door, finish shingling the roof and to sit back relax and enjoy ...........:) view from road
