For readers following this story, and traffic stats indicate that you are, I am pleased to report that we are still in the prep stage and the house is cooperating. Our crew, Sam and John, as featured in this piece, have the situation well under control in spite of serious heat and harsh sun exposure on the property over the past several days. We expect to be applying stain next week. The stain will be Arborcoat from Benjamin Moore.
The picture on the right shows where the wrap around deck meets the log cabin on the front elevation. This is about to become the happy home it is supposed to be. Then, we will keep it that way.

I saw this review of Arborcoat began in 2011, but it only goes as far as the preparation stage on this link. Is there another link with a full review?
Thanks, Jim
