In the midst of the summer heat...

Let this picture be the refreshment you need!

Pictures of laying the loft floor added!

Bonjour! We have just added pictures from last November's laying of the loft floor to our photo album. View those pictures here.

Don't forget - if you have pictures you'd like to see up there, contact us at nhoccabins@gmail.com!

Get outside and enjoy the summer!

So you want to rent a cabin?

Well, our Cabins Reservationist is Colum Lang. He can be reached by email at:

ciu2@cisunix.unh.edu

For the moment he's living in a tent somewhere, so calling him is not an option (although he is checking the messages at the office, so I hear) but he works at a place where he checks his email every day. So if you'd like to rent the cabins, he's the man you want to reach!

Share this page with your friends!

If you're checking this out - great! Wouldn't it be great if all NHOC alumni could see what's going on with Jackson Cabin, even if we don't happen to have their emails? If you know an alumni who might like to see what's up, send them the link to this page! The address here is http://nhoccabins.blogspot.com .

Also, if you visit - let us know! We'd love to see some comments to know that people are indeed checking this page out. We especially like comments like "Tell that guy to put a shirt on!" or "Those girls look like they work twice as hard as you lazy guys." and "You call that a cabin? I'll build you a cabin!" No matter what you have to say, let us know you're here!

Hope all is well with everyone, and get outside!

Hey everyone! We've added more pictures to our photobucket account from when we did the foundation and when we built the sill. Check them out at http://s61.photobucket.com/albums/h67/nhoccabins/

If you have pictures of Jackson you'd like to see posted, please send them to Jason at NHOCCabins(at)gmail(dot)com. Please send fairly small file sizes, if possible.

Get out and enjoy the weather!!!!

Roof Raising at Jackson Cabin

Hello everyone! This past weekend, the roof was raised at the new Jackson Cabin. A dozen or so hearty NHOCers braved the torrential downpours on Saturday to be part of history in the making. We were able to not only raise the rafters, but also get the wallboard and vapor barrier on the roof. Thank you to all involved, especially Rusty and Jeff for their timber framing expertise, hard work, and moral support. Check out this link for pictures from this past weekend up at Jackson.

If you want to be involved in upcoming work at Jackson, check this page often or email Jason at nhoccabins@gmail.com . Here's a teaser from the weekend:
