A week of progress and some setbacks.


The entire house is now under roof and we even have several 2nd floor windows installed. Plumbing is 75% done as well as the HVAC ductwork. We almost got electric to the house this week but when the power company came to set the pole, they managed to drill a hole directly into a 2" water main thus shutting off the water AND power for several hours. Now that the water main is fixed, their repair hole (4' x 3' wide) must be filled and a different site selected for the power pole. The electric company plans to resume their project on Tuesday. Rooster advised the drill team to buy a lottery ticket as they had 280 acres to select a spot to drill and they managed to pick the one spot with the water main!
