Butch has finished as much of the electrical as he can until the insulation is blown in and that can happen any time as far as we are concerned. But the guy who is doing it is stacked up a bit and so it will be a week or two until he can get to it. Butch asked him what happened to the company we hired to do our house because we could not locate them at all in our area and he said he ran them out of business. He is considerably less expensive than the last time we had this done so I am guessing he is correct. My job today will be covering the electrical boxes that are installed to keep them from getting filled with insulation. Butch will be working with Russ on the siding.
Russ installed the two entry doors and the three windows last week. The garage door is still a few weeks away. When we lined that part up they told us it would be 4 to 6 weeks. Not what we wanted to hear. We are ready for them too so we can be sealed off from the weather. Not much of a worry as the drought is hanging on severely. Every time we look at radar they are getting rain north of us and south of us but we are stuck in the middle with no rain. They said on the news that our area has had no rain for 69 days and the last rain we did have was meager at best and did not qualify as a drought breaker.
Whenever the first of September rolls around we start looking south, at least in our head. Still not sure what that means for us this year. I asked for a timeline on the RV repair and was told we would be notified when they had one. When we took it to them we told them it had never been winterized...hint, hint. It feels so strange to look through my "computer" window and not see the motorhome sitting there waiting for us.
Also notice how 'airy' the trees look after the derecho. When golfing it is always said that trees are 90% air and this kind of attests to that.
I will be adding interior shots very soon.
