Day one work.

The builders arrived about 1030 today. They got started on the foundation pad and brought reinforcement wire and rods. They will have some sand dumped in to level the ground before pouring the concrete.

Things are moving along.

I made some calls the other day to find someone to build a garage/workshop next to the house. I called several General Contractors and left messages. One called back and said I needed a remodeling person and gave me a name. I called that person and he was here the next morning to check on what I wanted and came back the next day with a quote. It was below our limit so he will start the job tomorrow.
 The storage room isn't big enough for my stuff. I still have 12 boxes of stuff to unpack and I'm out of room.
 I bought a new work bench with 4 drawers that I was able to fill with tools and things and I put the building board on it and opened up a kit. Too much happened today that I was unable to get started on it. I called the VA in RI and talked them into letting me mail my hearing aids to them for a tune up, our son installed two new bathroom fan/lights, the builder came with the quote, then the GE repairman came for the fridge ice maker, I am waiting for a call from the ADT people, I called the Jewett City Bank and got some paperwork to transfer some money into another account and a couple from Slaughter came by for a visit. It went smoothly as one came as one left all day. To start tomorrow off I have to go to the post office and fire off the bank paperwork and get a photo for a passport renewal.

Well said.

Winding down.

We are still finding things that we forgot we had or lost. I found some triggers and bolts in a box I brought in the Dadge. The computer got running last Monday and the TV yesterday, Sat. Just in time to record the ARCA and unlimited races. Now I have to figure out how to recall them on the new system. Winternationals this afternoon. I'm still figuring on the best way to get the garage foundation/pad put in. I have the location chosen. The Sears delivery was the last call of any importance on my cell phone and with the wall phone working I shut the cell phone off. It's back in the truck for emergency use where it belongs.

Deep south house.

We signed the papers a week ago last Wed. I called the movers immediately and got them into action. 10 days later the moving van arrived and unloaded twice the stuff that we now have room for. I'm looking at a prebuilt garage at Home Depot.I need the room for a workshop and plane room.
The neighborhood seems quiet and is in the town of Denham Springs, La about 10 miles east of Baton Rouge. Aaron is 31 miles north east. The weather has been really good with daytime temps in the 50's and 60's. There is about an hour more of daylight compared to Ct.
