Anxious to get out there

2-3 Weeks for the Driveway

We spoke with Mr. Austin regarding the driveway, and were told that it should be able to be done in 2-3 weeks. We will meet him out there before he starts so that we can show him where to get dirt from (the home site), so as to make it easier when we do start the construction process...By him moving dirt from the home site to where ever it is needed to level off the driveway, it will also allow us to get core (soil) samples to give to the engineers at Superior Walls.
After the driveway, we are going to hold off on any other major expenses for awhile (the next thing would be a carport/storage building) to build our finances up again. We were given an old pop-up camper that we are working to restore, so we will have plenty to keep us busy, and allow us to finally stay out there every now and then.

Slight Changes to the Home Plan

The Changes are obviously no garage (we are determining based on budget if that will be feasible). The entry to the Master Closet (the room on the far left side) is from the bedroom instead of the bathroom. I love the fact the the toilet area in the master bath is also acting as a half bath for guests. Very efficient! John is still working on configuration of the kitchen (which will be subject to change, as we are hoping to get some used restaurant items (counters, sinks, maybe stove etc.) at auctions when we are closer to that stage. The restaurant items may change how the kitchen is laid out).

Quick Update

We are planning on meeting with Mr. Austin (Bulldozer guy) the weekend of the 14th to show him where we want the driveway, and where to borrow dirt from.
