My wife and I had the pleasure to spend four days in the Keweenaw Peninsula of Michigan.  This is the area near Houghton/Hancock and is on the way to Copper Harbor, Michigan.

Camp Cordwood near Lake Linden, MI

We stayed at the home of long time cordwood builder Wayne Higgins.   He took us around to a number of fine cordwod buildings and introduced us to the owners.   We also undertook to help and learn on a cordwood building site that was using Lime Putty Mortar.   More information on Lime Putty Mortar’s use in cordwood construction in a future post.

My purpose in writing here is simply to publish a few pictures of the cordwood we saw as a kind of cordwood eye candy posting.

Bathroom bottle ends and shells

I hope you enjoyed the images.
