Today it is snowing and the house will be filled with workers finishing small jobs. The second TV will be installed. The baseboard will be installed surrounding the big beams (we waited until the floor was done). The electrician still has to put in some light switches and install plugs in the kitchen island. The central vacuum motor and trim work will get done. The plumber has to tweak some things.
The basement is completely finished and spotless. With the new carpet the noise level is quiet and it looks simply gorgeous. The colors ended up matching just as Kim wanted, remember I have NO clue about these things.
The rest of the exterior stone is "supposed" to arrive today and will take ten days to complete. Once the stone work is complete we can order the deck railing, wait three weeks and then install it. It appears that the railing will be installed in about a month. The stairs and landing from the deck down to the western side of the house will be started next week. We still need to pour a concrete footing for the steps and we decided to wait until the weather improves. NOTE: Snow basin ski resort has received 425" of snow this year, a record, so we are still digging out from winter.
TOMORROW: Final inspection from the county. Once complete we will receive an occupancy permit. We will move about two thousand pounds of furniture that we have stored locally into the house. Friday and Saturday our household goods will be delivered. They have been in storage for three years so Christmas will come early this week.
I should be able to watch the Masters golf tournament this weekend at the new house.

It looks sooo good.
I think you forgot to order a third tv and have it sent to me in Chicago. Don't worry, I'm patient, you can just bring it with you at graduation.
Oooooh. I agree - more photos of TVs, that's what I say. And you can watch the next two months of the Stanley Cup playoffs. Um, hockey's not big in Utah, huh?
OK, still just Craig and me where the hockey craziness is concerned.
