Quick Trip

Yesterday I took a quick trip up to WY to check on the progress of the place and meet up with Phil, the contractor helping me out with this part of the project. He was up earlier in the week and touched up the grade around the home. It had settled quite a bit from the recent foundation replacement so it needed some work. Looks great now and he is now hooking up the power, sewer and water lines.

We're considering installing a valve to flush the water out after use so that in the winter months we won't have any water in the home at all. I have a shut off valve up by the well and another by the home just before it enters the house. Hopefully this will eliminate any potential water damage.

I'm about done with the deck design and hopefully next week we'll get some deck footing holes dug and the framing of the two small additions will begin.
