COVENTRY HOME

 in the hills of Colorado 

I was called in at the last minute, "hey I don't think my son and his buddy can get this up before winter". I learned that they got my name from the Coventry Sales staff. Within four days, as luck would have it, I was able to accommodate them. Just myself and my son drove  the nearly 800 miles to a small unknown city south of Colorado Springs in fall. Here I am with the son and his buddy, who was a school teacher. They were on the job site daily to help out. They helped stack the logs, nither had carpenter experince , yet were quick on their feet and had good common sense and they were a great help, plus we enjoyed each other and had some good fun. They were staying on the job site in their camper which was purchased just for this occasion. They provided us lunches , soups , stews and sandwhiches which was greatly appreicated as we did not have to leave the job site for meals and could get back to work quickly. 

This house took two weeks with the four of us all by hand. I did not do windows and doors the intent was to get the bulk of it completed so they could finish up the rest.
