Cabin construction in Saskatchewan

The road to the site. Saturday, cabin delayed 

truck problem.

 

Helen's brothers have the beams and posts in place.

The view of the slough from the site.

Sunday the cabin arrives backing into the site.

The new neighbours between 5 to 10 snakes 

from large to small are sitting on a mound 

of disturbed earth next to the site. A plus.

By end of Sunday the deck and floor are in.

 

Monday the walls begin to go up

 

 Sunday a black bear swims across the

slough in front of the cabin. A  bit far for

my lens.

"The wind blows through

the little hut in the rice field

and the moonlight shines through the roof

and guards us all through the night."
