July is National Log Home Month—a celebration of our nation’s love affair with log cabins.
Log homes play a vital role in American history. In addition to the warm, comforting ambiance a log home provides, there are many practical benefits of log home ownership. Please read on for a short list of key features of a log home....
-According to scientific studies and a principal called thermal mass, logs absorb heat energy during the day and radiate it at night to even out the temperature which in turns creates a more comfortable atmosphere while using less energy which is always a plus! Go team Green!
-Made from a natural, renewable resource, they're rugged, durable, distinctive and the perfect choice for any setting.
-On average, a log home can be anywhere from 15 to 20 percent more energy efficient than a conventional home, saving you money, and doing just a little bit extra to help out the environment.
-Every log home has an unmatched personality all of its own. From funky to straight and narrow, each home tells a story....your story.
-Log homes are very weather resistant. A properly sealed and built log home is going to be able to hold its own against mother nature; it is not uncommon to hear stories of log homes still standing after hurricanes, earthquakes or harsh wind storms. If you live in an area that experiences dangerous weather conditions, going with logs could be a very wise decision.
These are just a basic few reasons that a log home could very well be the home of your dreams but hey, don't take my word for it, stop in and visit our model home at 46966 State Highway 30, Halcottsville, NY 12438 or checkout our floorplan section of our website and give us a call at 800-926-ALTA and our experienced team will be glad to answer any question or concern you may have.

In Honor of National Flag Day this Thursday June 14, we here at ALTA thought we would take the opportunity to both honor as well as to spread a little knowledge of "Old Glory".
National Flag Day is when Americans celebrate the meaning of their nation's flag, honor the traditions associated with its care, and educate those around them to its significance. The Flag of the United States is to be honored. After all, it carries with it a rich history and a long standing tradition. On June 14, 1777 the Flag Resolution was signed, making the current stars and stripes the National Flag of the United States of America. On May 30, 1916, President Woodrow Wilson called for the nation-wide observance of Flag Day. In 1949, President Harry S. Truman signed congress' decree, making June 14th of each year National Flag Day.
And since we just love our little facts and tidbits, read on. 
❣️
-It is believed that the idea of celebrating Flag Day in the United States originated with a teacher in 1885 in Wisconsin.
-The colors of the American flag are symbolic. The red stands for valor and hardiness. Blue stands for justice, perseverance and vigilance. White stands for innocence and purity.
-People (me) sometimes refer to the American flag as "Old Glory." The term first was used by Capt. William Driver in 1831. He was a ship-master from Salem, Mass., and called the flag Old Glory after being given a flag by friends.
-The American flag also is referred to as "Stars and Stripes," which is a common nickname referring to the flag's design.
-The design of the American flag has changed 27 times. 
?
Happy 241st National Flag Day "Old Glory" and continue to fly high
??️ Food for thought...
Over the upcoming Memorial Day weekend while many of us will be camping, fishing, hiking, swimming or having a cookout with family and friends, lets not loose sight of the true significance of this holiday...its much much more then an extended weekend. Memorial Day is a somber day to remember and honor the many men and women that have given the ultimate sacrifice to defend all that we hold dear: life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
In honor of this special day, we have compiled some fun facts that you just may not have realized, did you know? Take a look 
?
-Several towns claim to be the originators of Memorial Day, but in 1966 Congress declared Waterloo, New York, to be the birthplace of the holiday.
-Memorial Day originally honored military personnel who died in the Civil War (1861-1865).The holiday now honors those who died in any war while serving with the United States.
-Memorial Day was originally called and is also referred to as Decoration Day, from the early tradition of decorating graves with flowers, wreaths and flags.
-Americans are encouraged to observe a moment of silence at 3 p.m on Monday. This tradition was established in 2000 by then-President Bill Clinton, so people could "remember and reflect on the sacrifices made by so many to provide freedom for all."
-President Donald Trump, has issued his proclamation for this Monday. He is asking that flags be flown at half-staff until noon, and he is recognizing the 100-year anniversary of the U.S. entering World War I.
In closing, remember that freedom is never free so please take a moment this Monday May 28th 2018, to remember the fallen and to pray for lasting peace among nations.
