Reflections on 2007

2007 was a good year for us. We started a new business. You can learn all about it by visiting our web site: http://www.smallrusticcabins.com/. We hope you like what you see and will drop us a line with any comments you care to make.

It is tax time again and the drudgery of getting the papers together is trying. I favor a flat tax but the politicians aren't going to help us out.

The talk of taxes and other such things fill the airways these days. I think the pickings are slim to none this election year. The candidates all speak the same homogenized, pasteurized, sanitized rhetoric that says and means nothing. We need a plain spoken candidate, who will do right by the working folks. I sure hope one emerges before the general election. Where is Ross Perot ?

We are looking forward to the upcoming visit of our grandson (and his parents!) We will explore and marvel at the wonders this land has in store for us. Be well all....until that day.....Jim

Log Cabin Construction

Well it's near tax time again and the drudgery of getting all the papers together is our task for this weekend. We started a new business in 2007 (see our web site at: www.smallrusticcabins.com) and the paperwork is more difficult than the construction. We trust the coming year will provide opportunities to build more little cabins thereby improving our skill and the quality of our workmanship.


The outside activity is limited because of the weather. It has been cold, windy and wet here for the past month, but the woodshed still has a supply of dry wood, so we will enjoy the cosy warmth of our home with pleasure.


The airways are filled with political homogenized, pasteurized, standardized verbage, most of which signifies nothing. Pickings are slim in the political arena this time.


I hope you enjoy the web site and if you do drop me a line...more later...Jim
