Memoir http: //www.onelogatatimebook.com/ One Log at a Time is not about how to build a log cabin, although it wouldn't hurt to read it if you are planning on engaging in a similar undertaking. It's more about the journey of a forty-something couple pursuing their dream, our dream. Our goal was to build a simple 1,100 square foot, off-the-grid cabin from scratch in the mountains of southwestern Montana. We struggled, fought heat and cold and snow, had numerous setbacks, and operated on a shoestring. We camped out, on-and-off in a tipi at the cabin-site, and also lived and worked as rangers in Yellowstone Park. One Log at a Time covers roughly fourteen years, from 1993 to 2007; from the April day we first set foot on our snow-covered land through the day, with horribly mixed emotions, we sold our beloved cabin, and the genesis of our next adventure. Our journey embodies the inspiration, perseverance, sweat, trial-and-error, humor, and satisfaction that comes from doing something on our own. It was a journey that we look back on with great affection, and one that changed our lives.
