I'm writing this from a log cabin, or more accurately a log shack, built over three winters with a forester/carpenter friend in the woods behind the house. I say "winters" because I approached it as I would an antenna: The worse the weather, the more chance of success the project will have. I have fond memories of chipping ice off logs so that I could peel the bark. We used trees that needed thinning because they were strangling other trees.
