Reviewed a few things with architect and builder

Work was slow yesterday—apparently there was a big celebration at Izzy’s that didn’t end until 2am so they took the day off.  That’s okay—they’ve worked a lot of Saturdays and they put in a lot of hours.

I did meet with Doug, Kyle and Lonnie to review a few things.  Kyle figured out that the truss on the west wall of the family room was missing some additional framing and that the dormer needed to be moved “up”.  Then the trusses worked fine so that the dormers will be symmetrical.

We also confirmed that we want to enrage the exercise room by 4 feet, change to a 3’0” door, and leave the door as is in the center of the room.  We want the staircase on the down side into the basement to be open railing.  

We look at the garage remodel and realized that a door can’t be added to the front, so we will leave it on the side and add a window to the front.  For the “barn wood” Doug gets that from Wyoming snow fences at $3.50  foot.

I spoke to several more kitchen cabinet companies yesterday and will be getting additional bids on the cabinets.  We need to get those ordered pretty soon.

Also decided with Doug that we can leave the electrical entering overhead on the side of the garage versus trenching up the driveway which will save money. This is fine since it isn’t noticeable anyway.
