On The Brink

It seems like during the course of a house, you are always on the brink of something. About to start grading, almost to framing, we should have a roof soon. But now, we are full-fledged in the midst. But we are alas still on the brink. On the brink of being finished with the roof. On the brink of getting electrical and mechanical inspections, along with our Earthcraft framing stage inspection (the realy important one). On the brink of getting paint on the outside. On the brink of insulation and drywall. Its exciting to think there is always something about to happen, and it's exciting all the things which have happened.

Interesting side story: Lura might have a new client. A lady called my office today (bear with me) and our receptionist, knowing that we don't do single family homes, gave her my name in order that I might put her in touch with Lura. Through the conversation, I learned it is a couple with two kids who have relocated from New Orleans. They bought a house in need of some addition and renovation. I told them a little about Lura and about our house. I also asked where their house was. When she told me downtown Greenville and the street. I said, "oh my gosh, that is like 2 blocks from us, we are on Stone". Then she exclaimed, "You're not the Earthcraft House are you??" They want to stay as green as possible with the renovation. It's interesting how some things work out. Lura started out with some potential clients and we ended up with future neighbors. Cool, huh?

Well, anyway, on with the pictures.
