We've got a lot to talk about....

Well there is a lot to talk about but I don't have the notes I need to fill in all the blanks since the last post. We thought the counter top would be installed this week but it will be next week, we hope.

Siding has been completed. Yes they had to deliver yet another load to complete the job. This time we received a new lot number that did not have the color problems of the 2 previous deliveries. A few days of siding work over a 3 week period.

On Monday the 2nd we took a water sample to a lab to be analyzed and yeah good water.

On Saturday the 7th we winterized the camper and moved it off the lot so it was out of the way for final grading. We moved in with friends in Morrissville that evening. As we were working on the camper and doing laundry the septic alarm went off. Oh shit. Calls were made and the tank folks showed up and found that the pump had failed. So now we have a new septic pump.

Sunday Dick and I drove to Virginia to retrieve our stuff from the storage units. I had rented a 26' Peneske truck and with the help of Lindsay we had the truck loaded by the end of Monday. I also had to rent a 12x6' U-Haul trailer to get the last of the tables and chairs, which we loaded on Tuesday morning. As soon as the trailer was loaded and the storage units were swept out we hit the road for Vermont. We made an overnight stop in Oneonta NY and were at our house by 1 PM on Wednesday. By dark the truck was unloaded. Dick and Tom helped with that. We returned the truck on Thursday and when we got back to the house the Dish guy, M.R. Satalite, was there to do his install.

Today we returned the trailer and the final grading was completed.

Now counter top! That should be Wednesday 11/18. We will be using the next several days to get a house inorder.
