John and I visited the house on Sunday Feb 10th to check on progress and deliver another truckload of boxes from the storage unit into the basement (we think we'll be able to get the rest in one more trip!) Should I say this: not quite as much progress as we had hoped, especially on the painting front. In the two weeks since we were last here, the only visible progress we could see painting-wise was that the inside of the garage was done. Since we didn't know that the inside of the garage was even going to be painted - - we were somewhat less than impressed. However, the porch railings are going up and the steps from the garage into the house have been completed - these are both safety items that must be in place for us to get a Certificate of Occupancy. Scott told us on Monday that he plans on being able to get that all important Certificate by the end of next week (Feb 21st or 22nd?). The schedule for this week (besides the painters who will do whatever they please, I guess) is to finish all the electrical, plumbing, railings, and kitchen backsplash. On Monday, Feb 18th the appliances will be delivered. Next week Scott will get the gutters up and have another section of the driveway plus the sidewalks poured. So it all sounds like we are FINALLY getting there. Here's the exterior with the railings in progress and all the siding in place. Note that the yard is hayed!

The bookcases around the fireplace completed. This also shows the newly finished hardwood floors well:
To be continued!
