Andy Tracy arrived just before 8 with two of his workers, Tom Hobbs and Logan Marsano.  We spent an hour reviewing where all the ductwork will be installed, then I left for an appointment in Middlebury.  Andy had departed by the time I returned to Fern Lake at 11:30.  Logan left mid-afternoon to build air boxes in the Boot Hill Metal Bending shop while Tom continued cutting holes in the main level floor through which the air conditioning ducts will run.  Somehow it seems a bit strange to be installing the air conditioning before installing the heating when the temperature is well below freezing outside.  As Tom was leaving just before sunset, he discovered that The Granite Group’s truck had visited sometime this afternoon and left $3,800 worth of plumbing and heating commodities on the ground outside the garage.  Needless to say, we moved the lot inside before Tom left.
