This log home echoes both the financial conscience and the environmental conscience of the family. The Renfroe family made use of lots of reclaimed lumber throughout the building process, which helped them save money and also the natural surrounding landscape.

Additionally, Fred is a stickler for numbers...he kept track of the weight of all of the building materials that make up this house. He says that it weighs over 250,000 pounds, and that if you had a crane big enough, you could lift it up and move it in one piece. But it would have to be a big crane. The concrete roof tiles alone weigh about 35 tons!
