Where you can hop on the MARTA rail line and get to downtown, or Lennox, or to a lot of other areas with jobs, restaurants and shopping.
"How-to" Build This Log Cabin for $3,000
How to Build Your Own Log Home For Less Than $15,000 by Robert L. Williams
The Williams family was inspired by a tornado. The tornado destroyed their home in North Carolina and left them with little more than a wasteland of fallen trees. They had no experience with log construction, but learned to become resourceful with what they had. They ultimately built a 4,300 square foot log home for just $15,000!
The book includes coverage of site selection, drawing plans, chain-sawing and squaring logs, tools and equipment, foundation walls, sawing framing timbers, log wall construction, log girders, building floors, roof framing and sheathing, wiring and plumbing tips, chimneys, stairways, and decks, rustic windows and doors, cabinetry and book cases, chinking, insulating, and finishing touches.
The great thing about a book like this is that it helps put you back in the real world after you've heard so many "experts" claim that a new house is going to cost you $150,000. A good house shouldn't cost a lifetime to pay for it. Robert Williams' book should be an inspiration to owner-builders everywhere. 1996. Breakout Productions, Inc. 216 pages.

Well, how many children do you have?
None. I took care of all the babies I made with abortions.
Newsflash: wal-mart sucks. 90% of freepers would probably agree.
I am speechless.

"I've been here three months or longer," Staves says. "Sometimes I can't get a ride to get nothing to eat. I'm in here hungry."

Unbeliveable. I'm speechless.
With the amount of trees down between Katrina and Rita those log cabins could have been built for free!
I ride MARTA to school each day. I know that the airport, College Park, and Decatur are all served by rail. For $55, you can ride MARTA unlimited for an entire month. It is inexcusable that they didn't get a job in Atlanta in five months.
>>>Newsflash: wal-mart sucks. 90% of freepers would probably agree.>>>
Newsflash: Your opinion is not fact. And I don't care what 90% of freepers agree on. Apparently 90% of the country does not agree as they continue to do 90% of the business.
Well, she did (most likely fake) get that pinched nerve in the foot, that conveniently is letting her draw workers comp from the cruise ship company job he landed. She can't be expected to hobble next door for something as un-necessary as food now, could she?
Backwood home magazine had a great article about a single woman who built her own log home(vertical logs), as awesome as that is...it's probably not something anyone can do.
No faith in your genetics?
Just as well, I wouldn't want the baby murdering gene to continue into the future.
