Building Belushi Episodes
Season 1, Episode 1
The Rogue's Lair
Jim Belushi buys an old Elk's Lodge property along the Rogue River outside Medford, Oregon. Intended to be a getaway for the guys called the 'Rogue's Lair", his wife, Jenny, wants nothing to do with the project, at first! Right out of the gate, snags hold up construction. Flood plain restrictions and county code requirements force changes to the design, slowing things up and adding more to the cost.
