It helped that Sam, a single 39-year-old oil field hand, was fine with taking the lead from Lorraine Bebout, Eli’s wife and an artist who had a concept in mind as she picked out materials and colors.

Lorraine designed and sewed decorative pillows for the cabin.
“I would still approve everything with Sam because he’s part owner and it’s his investment, too,” Mathews said. “He was happy with everything during the process and he is still extremely happy with how it turned out. It went very well, as has everything else. It’s a beautiful relationship.” KA
