Yesterday George and his helper laid out and installed the sill plates for the basement exterior wall panels. Today they installed the panels using George's crane truck. They made it look easy, even though there was a considerable amount of adjusting and fine tuning to get everything to match up exactly level and plumb. It's really exciting to finally see a significant change in the appearance of the house.
OOPS!!!Once the panels were in place, we discovered that an error had been made by Precision Panel when they measured for the placement of the windows. Evidently they failed to take into consideration that the panels are sitting on a stem wall that is 5 1/2 inches above the floor level - exactly the amount that the window openings are set too high in the panels. Our man Gus from Precision Panels assures us that it's an easy fix and he will be out next week to take care of it.
I shot this picture of the moon tonight as it came up from behind the mountain. Just another reminder of why we love this place so much.
