Rain Delay (Just Like Baseball!)

On Day 1, we experienced a deluge of rain, at the wrong time. The structure was not fully enclosed during the rain and a substantial amount of water ended up on the basement floor. While the volunteer crew was able to mop up most of the water, the concrete floor is extremely damp. Professional opinions have informed us of the high possibility of damage to any subfloor and flooring if they are installed on the damp concrete. Rather than rush to install flooring that may be ruined due to the moisture, a decision has been made to allow the basement to fully dry over the next 5-7 days and delay the installation of the flooring.

As a result the open house planned for this Sunday has been POSTPONED until SATURDAY, JUNE 26 FROM 1:00 – 4:00 PM with a dedication ceremony at 3:00.

The cabin is fully enclosed (see the pics below) and this extra time will allow for a fully dry floor for our flooring.
