Thank You Sir. Expecting the Meter installed today from Oncor! Maybe just maybe we can Turn on the Lights! YEEHAA! Peace

 
Scorching HOT temps this weekend. I was sunburn thru my clothes. We got POWER from the Pole friday night. No more TEMP power. Time to turn on the A/C's and let's get this ball rolling. The tech who came out was the angriest man on the planet. By 10:00pm I threw him a $100.00 bill and told him I appreciate the effort. First smile out of that guy the whole time. Peace

Built the pad for the motorhomes / trailers next to the house. Extended the slope of the driveway. Had to go find some dirt. Went to the back of the property and found it. Had a long run up the hill. Looks like a motocross track design to me. It's amazing what process you have to take to build a SOLID foundation. Come morning that driveway will be like Concrete! I've become a DIRT EXPERT! Peace

I was thinking the same thing. My dream house does not include looking at the neighbor.

with all the other pics posted, I saw all the property and was just surprised to see a house that close. It's definitely a SBA pad for sure

 
Front wall completed yesterday! You would think these boulders would just fall into place.....NOPE! Build the puzzle and there you have it. Amazing the time it takes to make something like this. Peace

You know phones have cameras now, well everyones phone except Esco's he still is using the jitterbug phone he got 20 years ago.  Don't have the heart to tell him that analog phones don't work any more, you would of thought that not getting a phone call in like 10 years would of been a clue.

 
Gutters are in. Excited for the next down pour. Trying to cut in driveway / RV pad. Retaining walls coming soon. Peace
