Well, I said I was moving the blog, but the other one on The Owner Builder site is not as nice as this one, so you can keep checking here for updates.
Latest news is that today (Tuesday) we are closing on the land at 1:00, and then picking up the modified house plans from the designer! woohoo! That means we are now on track to outline our yard, get bids on clearing, and put together the site plan for the final zoning permit. We can also take the plans to 84 Lumber to get a 'take-off' (list of supplies needed) so we can get bids on the building supplies. Now, finally, we can start moving through a list of 'to-do's, and start seeing some things get done. I've got a dry-erase board and space to hang a copy of the plans.
My feeling is it will take the school year to get finished enough to move, which is good for the boys. We're also pretty sure we will sell the house we are in to get enough money to really finish the house, including the deck and the screened porch, landscaping, and probably includes a boat. Just for decoration ya know. 50' of wooden sculpture that just happens to float... oh well. As long as I get my pygmy goats and a dog...
