Today is the last post on this blog for a little while, as I am off, solo, to pick up our boy Gavriel that we are adopting from Ethiopia. Those of you that are curious about that story, can read about it on our other blog.
For the rest of you, here's where things are at right now. Jen's father Tim and I have spent the last couple days pulling a few thousand feet of low voltage wire through the house - this will make up my eventual whole-house-audio system. OK, Tim did most of the pulling. I helped when I could, and when I wasn't packing for the trip and answering the millions of questions that the various contractors had for me.
The framers are almost done. The windows and doors are all in, and they are framing up the arches over the doorways right now. I love the arches. They add curves to all of the straight lines of the building, and really add that bit o' somethin' that I really dig.
While that was going on, the Electricians where there, pulling their wires, and the HVAC people were there running their ductwork. Mike was doing the plumbing too. Lots going on!
