Rural electric turned the power back on last week. A couple days later, Joe wired up 110V receptacles in a weatherproof box, providing us electric service. The pole and meter box were on the property when we puchased the place, serving the decrepit mobile home. When construction is nearing completion, we will remove the pole and bury the service entrance wire from the transformer to the house.
Kermit met me at the property on the the day before Thanksgiving to establish accurate building corner stakes and batter boards. We had a little rain over a week ago, and with no grass or topsoil or warm temperatures and long sunny days; locating and driving the wood stakes, was a muddy, slip sliding affair. There was a 90% chance of rain on Thanksgiving, so knew it would be near impossible to accomplish this task for at least a week (or more). The long range weather forecast has us dry through the middle of December. Hoping the ground dries sufficently, allowing us to dig trenches for the concrete footers. With Wednesday’s effort – we are set up and ready to dig.
