Beginnings...



First of all, you may be wondering about the whole "Cabana de la Cruz" thing. Well, we're having a log CABIN (Cabana) built and our last name is CROSS (Cruz) so, there ya' go! We hope the translation from English to Spanish is correct. We know there's supposed to be a ~ above the n, but haven't figured out how to do that. If you know how, you'll have to let us know!


We got the first photos from the log home company showing the beginnings or our logs being crafted. We also got our construction permits last week and our contractor will break ground soon...as soon as the ground is dry. So, now that things are really beginning, it seemed like a good time to begin a blog. My goal is update this weekly. Bear with me as this is new stuff!

Be praying for us. We know it's a long, uphill, and (hopefully) joyful road ahead.

Initially I thought I was entering a contest to win a Caribbean cruise. Blog...log...coincidence, probably. Looks good, Lincoln had a grat idea there.

Great to see the log cabin in progress. We miss you guys, and will have to make a trek to see the new digs, and you (of course), in NoCal sometime. And Vanessa, here's a message during Spring Training: Dodgers Suck!

Don't listen to Gobart--the Dodgers will win the NL West...again!

Site looks great--looking forward to seeing more of it.

Congrats on your progress! My sister, Tambi, is builing a log house in May. Hey, I wonder if this is contagious . . .

Love you!

Your property has changed considerably since we saw it last October. The newly leveled space is huge...can you fit a pool in there? So looking forward to the building progress by picture updates.
