Construction: Week 6

While this week seemed to be a bit of a stall for the contractors... again, not sure what exactly they did... it was HUGE in that we finally got drinkable water in the house.  

The plumbing was moved in our bathroom, which means that hopefully soon we will have a master bath that is functional.  Not sure how long I can go without showering, but I am losing a lot of friends in this process.

We also laid out where we want our vanities, so that those water lines can be moved as well.  This was a little challenging with door swing and toilet restrictions.  I think we have it worked out, though.

The guys also got some of the rake boards on the roof, which apparently are needed to hold on the roofing material.  We will eventually have to paint these, so that will be thrilling.  

The actual exciting thing that happened is that Culligan came to install our water filtration system.  Two days and several thousand dollars later we now have drinkable water and a 400 gallon cistern that will store water for us as we figure out the particulars of our "low-flow" well.

This also means that for the first time since moving in we are able to wash our own clothes at our own house and not depend on the hospitality of others.
