Friday was a landmark day in our project, as the first building materials were delivered from Franklin Building Supply. The basement framing package, which includes the main floor joists, decking, sill plates and basement framing is now on site. The basement walls are scheduled to arrive from Precision Panel on Monday. Framing was scheduled to begin on Monday, but our framer's father died yesterday, and George Holomshek, our framer, is on his way to PA as I write this. Looks like we will be delayed about a week. Speaking of delays, the tubing for the geothermal source heat pump is still somewhere in transit, so that part of the project is also on hold.
As I was moving dirt around the foundation of the house on Thursday, I looked down the hillside into the meadow east of the house. I saw over 50 turkeys making their way across the meadow searching for food. This is the first turkey sighting since springtime, when they move up into the timber to have their babies. The flock looks healthier than ever. Remember - clicking on the pictures will enlarge them for a better view.
