Central Vac system is installed

Jeff installed the central vacumn system piping a couple of weekends ago.... We'll have a couple of outlets on each floor.......I suppose that means we'll have no excuse for dirty floors.

The wall that is pictured below is the north side wall in the dining room that will have French doors installed shortly. Note the white vac tubing....We have passed the in-wall electrical and hold-down inspection and can now install insulation and go for the shear inspection on the lower floor walls that are the shear walls. Several of you have asked about this shear thing... Let me assure you, it has nothing to do with cutting hair...It's all about resisting the forces of wind and the movement of the earth. Want to know more? You know what to do:

Electricity is done!

Our electrical service is done! (well, except for the all important punch list that will be knocked out on Monday) The Integrity Electic guys spent several days here this week. They said we have one of the most intense switching systems they have ever seen in a residential project.......I must confess that I'm still not sure what all 12 of the switches behind the front door actually do..... Pictured is Joe from Integrity Electric putting the finishing touches on our kitchen island. The counter top guys were here on Wed to measure the counters, they were fabricated today and will be installed next Wednesday....

It's finally done...

   We're excited to report that our house is finally, really, officially DONE!  The shower hardware in the third-floor bathroom was installed this past weekend.   Yes, we moved in back in June of 2006....Don't judge...
