A log home in Emery, Utah. This shows the typical construction of homes of that era. Logs were layed one on another and notched at the corners up to where the roof would start. Rafters were then put up and 1 inch boards held them together. Shingles were then put on the roof. Sometimes tar paper would be used. This building does not have any of the original shingles left.
