In 2011 I began construction of our dream home on the cliffs of the Osage Gorge in Newton County Arkansas. I designed the house around the incredible site and spent 2 years building the place as my full time job. I now live here with my wife and 9 year old son. The Buffalo National River is only 3 miles away, and we enjoy all seasons, hiking, paddling, and swimming in this beautiful park. Follow along on all the cool adventures and fun.

Cabinets Arrive
What a day! Cabinets were delivered, exterior rock work is just about complete, and interior doors are in Harrison. I will install the cabinets tomorrow and call for the granite tops, which should be installed in about 3 weeks. I think I have convinced Scott to come back and set all the remaining interior doors, and that's about all I need from him. The plan is to move in and finish up while we live there, something that is not the best, but at least I get to keep right on working every day to finish. There's really not much left on the outside either, mainly the front entry porch and part of the french drain. My main problem now is finding some wide cherry to complete the paneling in the awesome room, I have material for everything else needed to complete the house. The cabinets are great looking cherry with shaker style, and I will spend all day tomorrow installing them. After that, I will spend the rest of my time completing all of the interior trim work. 4 weeks left till our self imposed deadline to move in. I guess we will let everyone know when to come over and help us move, I know how much everyone loves to move. It's supposed to rain this weekend, but since it's only a 60% chance, that basically means no chance, so I will get a lot done.
