basement floor and house is parked in field






There has been a slight delay putting the house on the foundation BUT half of it was delivered yesterday. It was supposed to fit on our land but the driver could not get in the driveway with his big truck so we scrambled to find a place to park it along with the second half which will arrive on Monday. It looks pretty neat sitting there but they have put the wrong color siding on! We originally picked this color, clay but changed our minds the next day to dark grey. We are not sure what they are going to do about it yet. If all goes as planned it will now be set on the foundation this coming Friday. They do have a smaller truck to hook up to it which will then enable it to make the swing into the driveway. As you can see, we were all ready to try to pull it with our Nissan, but we could not budge it!

Fun Around the work site






I meant to post these over the weekend... so they are a bit out of order... Ian and I had fun exploring.. wondering how the house would look when it finally is HERE!

Ps: As you can see our lovable donkey made the journey back from Vermont....

Drainage & Bulkhead






Everything seems to be coming together quickly now. The house will be driven into Stow sometime Friday afternoon and will be parked in the Erikson's Ice cream parking lot until Monday morning. If all goes well it should be set on the foundation by the end of the day and then all the buttoning up will start.
