Monday was a day we have been anxiously waiting for each day the house is taking on a better shape of what the end product will look like. Monday morning came and it was a bit of a downer...it was pouring, Matt, Chris, and Jon headed to the lot about 5:45 am after a brief stop to Home Depot they made it to the lot shortly after 6. They did their best to get things started but the rain really slowed them down. By 9:30 they had retreated back to our house for dry and warmer clothes and then headed back to the lot. By 11 am the rain was gone and the sun came out. The weather this week is in the mid 80s...I'm so glad the 102 degree days are gone at least while we are framing. By the time the girls and I got up there to take the boys dinner they had made some good progress despite the weather. Hallie was pretty excited to see her room all framed in.
Due to the rain they had set up the "sunshade" to help protect the tools it ended up working out pretty good for the for both rain and shine.
In the background you can see the mountains of dirt we have in the back still! We have used all that we need to back fill and are unsure as to what we will do with the rest of it. I hope we can get rid of it so we don't have to pay to move it.
Matt was also worried about the generators putting out enough power to run all of their equipment but luckily Monday morning Rocky Mountain showed up to hook it up and in less than 5 minutes we had power and were up and running. They also hooked up the utilities, finished back filling, and delivered the dumpster.
