So close I can almost taste the dirt…

With the electric company’s recent installation of our permanent electric meter, and the hook up of electricity, we are charged and ready to begin the digging process.

The excavator will begin by digging the lake, or more accurately, the pond. Digging the pond will be a three day process and upon its completion they will dig the basement. That will only take one day.

Permits are currently being pulled for the pond and four days after they have been given the green light to begin, we will have two large holes in our property.  I plan on taking a lot of pictures for the website and I would like to get some short video posted also. We’ll wait and see how that works out.

Meanwhile, we are looking at cabinets and appliances.  Appliances should be fairly easy to choose. We are going with stainless steel everything.  As for the cabinets, we really seem to be gravitating towards the darker stained wood. A couple of colors we like are ‘chocolate’ and ‘peppercorn’. Those just sound dark, don’t they? We still need to meet with an expert to pick out the look and style of our cabinets and plan the overall layout.

Oh, how the fun never stops…

    Congrats Jason and T! That is awesome! Is the pond going to be in front or behind the house? Are you going to stock some fish for Casey?
    Hope all is going well. Love and miss you.

    Hi Pammy! How’s the little baby? The lake will be in the back and yes, we’ll stock it well for the next time you visit!
