Waitress Weilds Chainsaw, builds dream log cabin

Thanks to Ian for bringing this to my attention. A single-mom waitress moved to Oregon and built her own dream home from scratch...TWICE. It seems that after the first home burned to the ground, her supporters chipped in for the raw materials to rebuild.
One of the greatest stories I have read about people going after their dreams and achieving them against all odds. She is a hero for all time. Cut and paste these links to read her story:
