Seems like commonsense advice, no? Not if the messaging is unclear.
This week’s announcement regarding the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) settlement with five replacement window companies over misleading energy-efficiency and money-saving claims (or “greenwashing”) calls to mind a seminar I attended at the EcoBuild Conference in December 2009 surrounding the marketing language used to promote environmentally…

The only real snow of the year started last Sunday midday and came down in wet clumps for hours, sagging telephone wires and tree limbs. As we should have expected, the cabin neighborhood lost power. We've designated Gotham as our safe house in case of emergencies…

He has a base coat of clay on the walls. They are white now, so we have to squint to see their future color. Pale blue paint is going on in the den and russet brown added to the trim on the fireplace…

When you think about how long it takes for a log cabin to go from a foundation to an actual structure, you might think a few weeks, or months. One of my most favorite questions I get is “How long will the construction of my home take?” This gets me excited, because I absolutely can not wait to tell them they will literally see their log cabin go from nothing to a home….all in the same day!
The last log cabin wall raising I went to was…

Hello Log Home Lovers,
Almost exactly one year has gone since we started building Villa Linnea. Time to reflect on 2011.
It all started in early February. We had tons of snow on the foundation. It took several hours of tractor work, 6 hours of heavy duty snow plowing, and some 15 man hours of snow shoveling to get the foundation in shape for the log assembly.…
