Meeting results . . . remember, low expectations . . .

Went over a bunch details with Chris today - he was very accommodating and I believe understands our design wishes very well.

Met with Adam briefly and he was pretty straight forward regarding when our house MIGHT be started -- November 6th is his best guess -- and MIGHT be finished -- best case April, worst case June . . . assuming a November start date. WOOF, this is a long way past the original close date of September 15. BTW, we signed our contract on March 25, 2006.

Nope, noting this week . . .

We have a meeting with Chris, plan supervisor, and Adam, construction supervisor, to go over construction details on Tuesday. We are hoping to get some reliable information then.

If nothing else, this process is teaching me to set my expectation VERY low in hopes of being pleasantly surprised (this is a hard concept for me to grasp)!

More after Tuesday's meeting . . .

This week!

Met with Larry Cabrara on Thursday and he showed me engineering plans that have been approved (yeah). They plan on scraping the lot and setting forms by Friday!!! All body parts are crossed!

Pictures as soon as the begin moving dirt . . .

Nothing new . . .

Never believe rumors . . .

No evidence of our plans back from engineering and no ground breaking ceremonies this week . . . maybe next week?

rumors . . .

I ran into Chris Czichos (agave building supervisor) a couple times this week and he said our plans have been held up in engineering but "should" be completed Monday at the latest - they're planning on breaking ground on our house Tuesday or Wednesday . . .

. . . all body parts are crossed!

Permits have been approved!

Just received word tonight that our building permits have been approved . . . YEAH!!!!! The building should begin in the next few weeks - keep your fingers crossed for us!
