Casa Update 7

Well, We had our first experience with major rain down here. It rained all day on Friday. We got at least 1/2 inch but probably more. All of the major roads on the Ranch were a mess. They are made of compacted clay and it does not like water. The other roads are mostly sand and they didn't even look like they were wet. I worked all day on re-installing XP on a friends computer while Regina went to the Laundromat. While we were doing all of this, our contractor was very busy at the house. We went up there today (Saturday) to check on the progress. Well, they are a few days from finishing. The countertops are supposed to go in on Wednesday and by then, they should have all of the rest done. The last issues are placing the pendant lights directly above the Island Bar and the new extra sink (they messed up the Island to where our double sink would not fit). Pictures show all of the Halogen lights in the kitchen are in and a few extra holes for the pendants. There will still be a punch list though. All in all, we are very pleased with our contractor. Regina is off to Tennessee to visit her Dad on Thursday. She will miss the house completion as she will be back on the 12th (same day Leslie arrives). Next pictures should be of a completed house and maybe one full of boxes.....
