So I figure everyone is probably dying to hear the update on the new house...well, maybe not dying, but I am excited so I will share! The hole was dug two weeks ago and then we were delayed for rain. But with a little bit of sun and a concrete crew with a whole lot of gusto, the entire foundation was formed, poured, and tarred in three days. Today they backfilled (just before the thunderstorm hit, whew!) and lumber is scheduled to be delivered tomorrow. Framers will be here Wed, and will be done by next Friday. So if you are handy with a nail gun and don't have any plans for April 30th, come on down and join the roofing party! We are doing quite a bit of sweat equity, and the shingles are step number one for us.
Everything is going really well, and we are very excited for our new home.
This is the .495 acre lot in Gunnison. It is just one block from both the elementary and middle schools, so everyone will be really close to home.

Ya, I'll be there. Should be a blast. I hope there's a range kind of outlet so we can use my big ol' compressor. Have you checked?
