Staking out the House for Excavation!

Today it was so cold and the roads were covered in an icy sheet, so as Tom tried to make it up the hill where his job is, the truck tires were spinning out and he started sliding down the hill backwards. The trailer jack-knifed and the truck spun all the way around...thank God Tom is ok and there wasn't any damage to the truck and trailer!!
To say the least Tom and Ryan didn't work today again due to the freezing cold weather!! They have had to keep putting off finishing this job because of this weather. They only have a couple days left to work on it and get it all done...so hopefully that will be soon!
Since Tom didn't work he decided to go stake out the house in preparation for excavation work!!
He had Richard's help to do the task in the below freezing weather!! They got the staking all done, so we are ready for the excavator!
I went out to, of course, take pictures of the first major event on our property and to my surprise saw a SOLD sign, which felt really weird!! I took some good pictures and I hope I can post them all on this site..I have yet to try the multiple picture thing on here!!
It's really official and it's all truly going to happen!!
Tom spoke with LouAnne, our great loan officer, and she said that we will be for sure ready to close on the loan by Monday the 26th!! WooHoo!! We will bring in receipts for the items we've
paid for and that will be deducted against the down payment!!
So the excavator will be back in town on Thurs and hopefully we can get him to dig our hole on Friday!! How exciting!
