Exciting times, Don! I look forward to hearing more as the house progresses.

Well, we will be homeless Saturday.  The trailer will be moved out
Saturday and excavation starts Tuesday.  Between now and then I have to
finish moving things out and move us into the travel trailer.  I have to
get the wiring for the washer and dryer ready by Thursday. Saturday I
have to disconnect the trailer electrical and hook up to a temporary
service panel.  Disconnection power means the well pump and the garage
are disconnected.  The garage is where we have the refrigerator and
freezer.  Yesterday I added a twenty Amp outlet to the light pole from
which I will run a couple of extension cords to power the refrigerator
and freezer.  The water will be off until I get the temp panel connected
so the travel trailer water tank needs filled.

They will move the trailer out of the way and take it away on the 17th.
Sunday I lay out the house and survey the site to see how much material
has to be moved.  Monday the excavator comes to look it over and make
any suggestions then Tuesday we move dirt.  We should be pouring
concrete for the footings by Friday and early the week after framing starts.

I spent part of the day helping a friend raise his antenna tower and
they are coming over Wednesday to help move stuff out of the trailer.
Thursday two young guys are coming over to move the last of the big
stuff out.

No time to even take a breath.
