We recently retired and set off on the adventure of building a new log home on 10.55 acres in North Country. This piece of land is part of the Adirondack State Park and includes a rear boundary along the St. Regis River and a wonderful creek (which we've named Andy's Creek because Rick's brother Andy found the land). The creek has several waterfalls, the land itself is about 4 acres of meadow and 6.5 acres of beautiful woods (most of it evergreens) complete with winding paths, and clearings to just wander through and enjoy nature.
This blog is meant to include our family and friends in this wonderful adventure. So enjoy the journey with us.
These are awesome stairs. Nice and wide and boxed in. We think the dogs will even go down them. In Bethany we had open backed stairs and the dogs would NEVER venture down. This will be a very nice change.
Rick tells me that Jess was already up and down them the first day. We've since put up a barrier to prevent accidents. All 3 used to balk at the "open tread" stairs in the old place. They'd go up and down the loft stairs with no hesitation, but the basement had always been a tough problem for all our dogs.
Hello Dear Cousins....Claire told me where to find this blog! How BEAUTIFUL everything looks! I hope you are having fun and it's obvious that you are building a wonderful new home! Miss you...keep in touch! Love, Pam

I agree - I definitely think it's wide enough for the dogs to go down!
