Overall: A week with our plumber, HVAC technicians, and electricians; all working to get their particular system – fully roughed-in.

Monday: Kyle and I installed all 8 windows in the shop building. Ralph & Joe were on site wiring the house.

Tuesday: More of the same, with only Ralph on site. I worked as his apprentice, doing the electrical grunt work while he focused on the more complicated tasks associated with electrician’s work.

Wednesday: Plumber and HVAC guys on site today. They completed their progress and are done until we have installed bathroom fans. Ralph was also here today. I spent a portion of the day answering questions from all three contractors. Most of the day was spent being Ralph’s electrician’s apprentice.

Thursday: Mike the plumber was still here today. Ralph was on site again today – a repeat of yesterday.

Friday: Managed to get our carpenter (Kyle) here and both electricians, (Ralph & Joe) – on site today. Kyle was late, but we installed the final entry door. Ralph & Joe have begun moving their electrical rough-in to the shop building

Saturday: Kyle and I installed deck boards all afternoon. completing 40% of the west deck area. I purchased a pickup truck today from Mike B. Will put it to work tomorrow morning with a long Menards shopping list

Sunday: Purchased a truckload of material in the early AM. Delivered it to the site, and waited patiently for a scheduled visit from friends – Jim, Kathy & Jack. I think they enjoyed my guided tour… Then went home on a rainy day to focus on the administrative side of this project.
