22 January 2016

Sonny and Doug spent the day doing their contortionist routine, i.e., installing radiant floor pans.  Tom, with occasional help from me, continued putting in lower level wiring.  Steve was here for most of the day working on the plumbing rough-in.  Shawn and Luke returned with the right electrical panel, the right wire, and the 125 amp circuit breaker.  However, they installed the subpanel upside down for some reason, which I discovered while inspecting their completed work before they left.  Not acceptable, so there will be yet another visit.  Sean came by during / after lunch to inspect progress.  As usual, he had lots of ideas about how to tweak the ongoing work to improve the final appearance of the house.  Not too many lights and switches have to be moved….  After Sean left, I made a dash into Brandon to get napkins (Chree likes to have them on the table at dinner instead of just using her jeans; she’s funny that way).  As dusk came on, I made a futile effort to clean up the house a bit, finishing just as Chree and the dogs arrived after an 8 hour 45 minute trip from Virginia.  Most fortuitously, she escaped the Washington area ahead of the blizzard.
