The story so far:
Get a phone call – check!
Get a crazy idea – check!
Get a cabin kit – check!
Get a piece of land – what?
Honestly it didn’t come as a surprise for me. I already knew that land was coming my way, so I only had to come up with an idea what to do with it. Newly bought log cabin kit gave a purpose for the lakeside lot.
Before I start to go through the visual documentary of my own log cabin project, I’d like to build a foundation for the story. It started long ago, back in 1997 when my cousin told that he had a million dollar opportunity (actually it was a two thousand dollar opportunity, but let’s not mind about that). He had come across two cheap Honka log cabin kits that just screamed to be bought.
After a quick phone call, Honkarakenne made some arrangements and following day the log cabin kit was resting in my cousin’s garage. Actually at that point there were two of them, but since this is a story of only one of those cabins… You’ll just have to follow the storyline of the late bloomer. Unfortunately it took almost a decade from the kit to finally make it to present location by the lake. But that is a topic for a whole new picture.
