Getting Septic





The snowball effect is in effect! This week the septic system is getting installed, the windows and doors are being installed, the interior first floor walls are getting framed, the electrician is getting started, the propane and chimney guys have given their estimates, and we're hoping to make contact with our elusive plumber- and it's only Wednesday! We had a lovely visit Sunday from Hunt's niece Cornelia Read, and today our brother-in-law Bill Hoyt is back to help with the framing. The work is less physically arduous, but it's getting colder these days, so we're motivated to get inside- estimated date to get the bed into the bedroom: early October.
This coming Sunday, Sept. 20, we celebrate our first anniversary and Hunt's (65th) birthday, and next Thursday is my 50th birthday. We had hoped to have a big party this week or next, but it will be a belated one, sometime in mid-late October, when we can have it inside the house, unfinished though it will be. Stay tuned!
