Building project update:

Last week Tracy's brother Les got started on our project. He installed a new power conduit and wired it to a new breaker box inside the house. He also arranged for the heating and air conditioning units to be moved about six feet to get them out of the way of the new addition.

The men who will be doing the grading at the back of the house also paid us a visit.
And we found out they will be able to remove all the trees and the stumps.

On Thursday the building inspector came, stuck a sticker on the work and we were moving ahead.....or so we thought.
Tracy called to have the power company come move their line from the old conduit to the new one and found out the inspector hadn't yet sent the information and approval to the company.

So the waiting continues...........

I fly to Colorado tomorrow to meet up with my beloved husband and accompany him on the drive from Colorado to Virginia-again. I am hoping that while I am gone the power will be moved and the trees cleared.

One can always hope.........

The original plan was to put another breaker box beside the existing one but there are pipes all through the wall. So, the new box is behind the door--I kind of like that better because it can be hidden when the door is open.

And while I'm hoping, I also hope to keep the blog up to date with details and pictures as we go.
