For 4 years
dalys.com was our way of sharing the experiences of our RVing with "old" and new friends
around the world.
Then
dalys.com
took on a new "life" to share the joys (and frustrations!) of
our log home building
project. If interested you can take a "virtual tour"
of our log home, which we absolutely love.
Thanks to our great business, the freedom we have
also includes financial freedom. This is just as well, since
the cost of living in the most beautiful mountain regions of
Colorado is much higher than in Dallas, and when completed,
our "log cabin" cost 3 times the price we sold our Dallas home for
in 1997.
Our log home project was conceived
in the autumn of 1999 when we found "Elk Springs", and purchased Lot 42, which
was destined to become "The
Daly Homestead" - our dream log home.
For
the entire year 2000 we researched log home manufacturers,
spoke with countless professional builders, reviewed many
plans, etc.
We finally broke ground in May, hoping to move in by
Thanksgiving ... we finally occupied our "homestead" in Feb. 2002.
The watchwords for our project come from Psalm 127:1, "Unless
the Lord builds the house, its builders labor in vain...", and John 15:5, "Apart from me, you can do
nothing." With no apologies to our earthly friends and professionals, God was our realtor, our
architect, and is our master builder. He is definitely in charge!
God bless,
