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.
You were a lot smarter than us w/ the ceiling fans! We have one in our 2 story living room - I don't think a ladder exists to get us up that high! I'm going to have to get one of those grabber things to change those bulbs! Glad you're back w/ updates. What's the projected move date??
Well, I always hated changing the bulbs back in CT and that ceiling fan was 15/16 feet and didn't hang anywhere near the loft. It was such a pain to haul out the big ladder.
We could have gone a foot higher on this one and still managed, but at this height I can use my little step stool and be done in 2 minutes!
We really did learn a lot living in the old log home for so many years. We had a " wish list" of things when it came to designing the new log home floor plan.
HOLY CRAP, too funny...I pinged Kathy asking if she had your email address and she gave me the URL for this BLOG!!! Way cool man... I'm sending you separate email on some DVR/TIVO,etc..questions I have... Happy Turkey day, Rich Kish

Good thought. A great way to get that trapped heat off the ceiling, when it is hot or cold.
