Plumbing, Propane and Satellite Connections

Everyday something gets done. Sometimes it is not much but it is something.


This week we got some more plumbing done - and we passed the septic inspection done by the health department!

The propane tank was set and the lines run.

And I'll have to get some pictures of my kitchen in the next blog entry
because we did get the kitchen backsplash tiled, 
the globes put on my Schoolhouse Electric lights, and the appliances all installed.
I do have this picture of Bryan installing the range hood.
None of the appliances were super easy!
 It seems we ran into some kind of weird issue with every one of them.

We also got the DirecTV and the internet working thanks to our tech pros from Audio Innovations.

We have a system called Control 4 that lets us access our TVs, lights and speaker system etc. from our computers and phones.
But we had to go with satellite internet which seems pretty good so far.
The big drawback is the data limit. No streaming movies, music etc. for us.

DAY 272 -- Floor Heat, Recycled Sinks and Dirt Moving!

The past week has been slow again. Many days Bryan was the only one who worked out there! But we did have a few things happen.

I salvaged some old sinks from my grandfather's stuff. These sinks had been sitting out in the dirt for over 30 years! But they are such cool sinks I decided to see what it would take to save them and reuse them. I had them resurfaced and they look so good. Here are before and after photos:






The other thing that is coming along is the installation of the floor heat.




And Bryan has been busy moving dirt with the bobcat.


There was huge dirt pile here and it is completely gone!

We are having beautiful spring weather. It is so nice to spend time out here.
We had a beautiful sunset over the pond last night.
I love watching the geese and listening to the coyotes!
