Good morning Rodney, That Techno metal post setup looks really cool and makes sense also!

Rodney, maybe you guys will be living up there before freezing weather returns! If nothing else, you ought to at least be able to put the RV there. It's amazing how quickly it is progressing. Evidently, you are a good GC and have hired good subs.

Following up on a thread from last fall, had the pros in to drop a few trees but leave some wood for firepit wood. Used and abused my new saw some. First time I used it and I really like it. Light and plenty of power. Mostly going to be used for limbs. Good saw, easy to start.

Good deal Bruce. My two Husky's have been getting a workout as well. The more I run them, the better they seem...

I love my little Echo CS330T Bruce. Great little saw. Intended to have a fairly laid back day today. Instead, wound up with this!



Checked my emails this morning and found an email from my patio contractor that he would like to start the project Friday. So I just gotta get it done. Back filling now after a few hiccups.

Roof is on. Trusses over garage being set. Eyebrow lines going across gable ends. Progress continues.

On the RV front, full timing has inspired a mod that should have been done when the rig was new... and it was quick and free. This little bugger was removed and oh what a difference it made! AHHHH, a full pressure residential shower again....

Looking good Rodney! Side note, our contractor was R and D Construction.

Looks like I may be in for a quick mod on our RV as well before we head for SD on Thursday.

I did that mod to a showerhead in the house. It had too much pressure then. I ended up modifying the restrictor and reinstalling it.

Rodney,

I may have asked this but I forgot the answer if I did. All the new homes near me are now sided with factory painted siding. Even the trim often goes up pre-painted or it's painted prior to the siding being installed. With your family being in the business, are you going to paint your siding or go with the factory painted siding? Could be in your area of the world, brick is still common but we don't see more than 25% of any home being brick near me.

Bruce...
