Month: November 2024

House Done – Headed South

On November 6th, we received our occupancy permit for the new house. We were so busy moving in and organizing, I did not take any pictures or shoot any real video. We are very happy with how everything turned out.

Then, the weather turned cold. Highs in the 20’s! Too Cold. So, we quickly decided to head south. We setup the house for being vacant over the winter (smart thermostats, video cameras, internet, shut off the water) and left quickly.

We drove 1,000 miles (Kelly driving the truck/trailer and Pam following in her car) in 3 days and arrived in northern Texas. We will stay in Texas for about a week.

We will then head West to Arizona for the next 4 months where the weather looks great (70’s every day and sunny).

Almost Done / In

We have made great progress, but we did not get occupancy by the end of October as planned. We were ready, but the inspector could not make. We hope to get occupancy on Monday, November 4th!

All of the electrical and plumbing is done (except for the tub which will be finished on Monday). The Barn Door style shower door will be installed next week (we hope).

The cabinets and countertops went in and look great. The white oak floors turned out great as well as the white oak stairs.

We planted “No-Mow” Grass along with oats (for fast roots) and some clover. Starting to green up nicely.
