| "When Bill and I first
met some eleven years ago, our first conversation was about
building and owning a log home. He envisioned going through
a log home school. I dreamed through searches in log home
magazines. Finally, we have taken the plunge. With
the fantastic help of Baker Pond Log Works our dreams have become
reality. We look forward to many years in our log home
and sharing it with others!" Bill
and Julie, Bend, Oregon |
