another viewpoint

Here's a shot with the siding, and some of the shake shingles (which are also Hardi plank). Inside, the electrical and HVAC are awaiting inspection. But today is Veteran's Day, so maybe tomorrow. Both of the contractors have been great. Reeves Heating and Air, and an electrician doing side work - call me if you want his name ;)

So, still plugging away...

next time, take the truck!

When I wen to pick this up for our electrician, I thought if it's electrical stuff, how much could there be? That has got to hundreds of pounds of wire and ... um... other electrical stuff. And its going in - we'll be wired! We have to be the slowest schedule in town, having just one sub in at a time. The HVAC guys were done yesterday. And we haven't decided on a propane company yet (THAT'S expensive stuff), so it will be next week some time for gas lines.
Still, its moving along.

What!? No picture?!

There's nothing to really take a picture of, except the HVAC truck in the driveway, or the paint on the floor marking the vents. The rough-in plumbing passed inspection, so the air is being installed. They are also going to do the venting, but he's still working designing it and figuring out the codes and requirements.

We are scheduled out pretty much to the end of our current funds, and now we are looking at selling the house we are in, or something... it will work out one way or another.

Not a real fun or exciting phase of house-building, but at least its still moving ahead.
