    I have been in love with log style homes since I was a child and when my husband got the call for a promotion in Carolina, I knew I had to find a log home. We moved to Saluda about 3 years ago into my dream home. You were not kidding about finding some amazing homes here! I was trying to find someone in our area to do a bit of refinishing and cleaning. Glad I came across this post! My husband will be giving your company a call in the next few days!
