Week 13: Sept 21 - 25

Oh, Boy! Oh, Boy! Oh, Boy!!! The rough in electrical is complete and the state inspector is scheduled for this coming Monday. If it all passes, then the insulators and sheetrockers can move in and do their work. It has been a long month working on the electrical. Every evening after work and all day Saturdays have started to wear me down. Last night, Kevin hooked up some temporary power in order to test all of the receptacles to insure continuity throughout all of the electrical lines. There was power to all of them!



We also put a few light bulbs in which became the highlight of the month for me as I am finally seeing the "fruits" of our labors.


I also completed running all of the low-volt wiring in the home. I estimate around 2000 feet of the RG-6 and CAT-5 wiring throughout the house that will someday provide for TV, telephone, internet, a theater room, and an option for individual room controlled audio. With the low-volt wiring now run I estimate around 7000 feet of total wiring throughout the house. Ironically, as we were about to leave last night we realized we had not run a line out to the heat pump. Hopefully, I haven't forgotten too many other details.



Brick and siding work are moving along and looking great.





We have a driveway!
