One more baby step toward completion!

Hello everyone,

Well here we are again. Progress is very slow but we are seeing something happen. Dennis is going to talk to the foreman on Tuesday and see if we can find out why they are starting out so slowly. I know we will have another month of warm weather but this afternoon we got a hint that "Fall" is just around the corner and we've had a lightweight sweatshirt on all day. We need to get this place buttoned up before the rain comes.
Anyway, we are into a holiday weekend so no work at all for at least three days that we can be sure of, Tuesday we hope to see the plumber out here to get his part done under the foundation so we can have the pad poured.
I had a routine maintenance appointment for my car the day the cement truck came out and poured the footings so I didn't get anything too exciting but here a the "few" pictures of the "little" work we had done this last week.
Hope to have many more coming much more frequently soon..........................
