Our Last Slave Lake Week

We put rock on this log home as well - beautiful location and gorgeous flowers. This house has never been parged, so instead of parging - they wanted rock installed. Definately added value to the house.
This is the back of the house with the rock. Was a really nice job to do.

This ws the side entrance to the basement - finished. This job took an unbelievable amount of cutting - so Betty was very busy cutting and mixing cement. We were finally finished late Thursday afternoon - that was a good feeling. We decided to go to the lake where Angie and Wally and clan were camping - so we booked a campsite and stayed overnight and had a wonderful breakfast with all of us. We left for home at 11 on Friday morning. What a great feeling to be home. I love camping, but after three weeks - it was good to be home.


Just had to add this one - here Hope is having a bath before bed - what a scream that was!!!!

Sounds like you have all been working like crazy but at the same time having a good time. I think that you and Pap are sure troppers for doing this work. I think the rock jobs turned out beautiful, makes me think that some rock on our house would look good. I cant wait to come out in August to see you all and than you can see how much Isaiah has grown. Love you all!
