We also attend the annual log home show up in Atlanta, and have had a good bit of time to narrow down the model and builder to a select few over the last few years. It's a lot different than just going to a Realtor or a builder and saying 'I want that one'. You really have to educate yourself about every facet of log home design and construction if you're serious about building one. I daresay I could almost teach a seminar on Log Homes 101. Hell, I may get my license and do it on the side, if I get the proper motivation.
"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away, for his name is Obama."
