Keeping a builders log

Ok, I've been building my plane for the last 2 years. A wood and fabric
plans built.
I purchased the raw material and milled everything myself. Up until
recently I've
kept a buiders log on everything I have made, built, and glued.
Question. Do I need to log every minute? There are days after days of
cutting very small
pieces and glueing 1,2, and 3 peices at a time, let stand overnight,
and glue 2 pieces again.
There are times that its only 2 minutes. I'm not complaining, I'm
really enjoying the woodworking. But, do I need to log every minute or
is there a better way to log the week?

I started with a written log and bagged that idea quickly. When I was done
working for the night, I had no desire to take 30 seconds and make a logbook
entry. What I did instead was buy several of the little disposable cameras
and take pictures from time to time. My DAR had absolutely no problem with
that approach, particularly since it was obvious that my airplane was built
in an attached two car garage, which gives credibility to the idea of an
amateur built airplane...
