House Update

Here's the latest. The driveway/basketball court slab is poured as are the shed slab and the pull through slab. The wood floor is done. The tile is nearly done. Plumbing is done. We should have electricity this week. The boys started putting their closet shelves in. There is still a lot of detail work to be done. I realize you can't see it well in the picture, but I am pointing at a cross that is in a knot in the new front door. How cool is that!

We do have a move in target date of July 7th!

Excavation and Lines

The excavation is finished and the concrete guys have layed out the house. Since there isn't anything close by, there's nothing to put siz into perspective. The house looks really small.

It was great to see the outline in orange marking paint, and I could see structural points outlined in blue, but I don't know what the purple lines are for. I think possibly where they will split up the pour. I'm sure I'll find out this week.

By the way, I didn't mention before much about the house. I designed it based on the house we're currently in. It's 4br, 21/2b, 8 car garage (split as 2 four car), 3,100sq. ft., on 1 irrigated acre. It's a modified territorial design so that the main roof is conventional.
