I finished staining the front today. Here's the big question -- should I take the stain inside as well, or go with a clear polyurethane in there? If I go clear, then we'll keep the nice striped contrast between the logs and wood strips. If I stain it, then everything will match. If I use clear poly inside, everything will be lighter and feel bigger. If I stain it, it'll be very warm. What to do?
Here, our friends the Buddens and
Risto Atanasov came to dinner last evening. Risto is an extraordinary chef -- he brought a large crock pot full of spicy, homemade tomato-basil soup and a massive amount of sublimely-wonderful moussaka, prepared the way his mother cooks it back home in Macedonia.
Mark Budden brought a huge plate of sushi rolls hat he spent most of the morning preparing. We ate well.
Here they are, inspecting the cabin...

| Angus brought a crust of bread from dinner... |

| I handed Risto the big hammer, and Abel joined him for a picture. Look carefully at the background to see Mark peering out the door. |
