Mountain Home Build Update - November 26, 2020

I hope this note finds you healthy and happy.

We’ve been very busy, or consumed, with our home getting set up. It’s on its way to being finished. We have hit a couple of rough patches, to be expected, but we’re getting there.

Right now, the house is set (on it's foundation and secured) and “dried in” - meaning, the weather will not affect the rest of the work. We have the “stitch and finish” crew working to finish inside now. The plumber and utility people will be here next week. The holiday and some weather stalled us for a couple of days. We are technically three weeks behind right now mostly due to not being able to get the home up the mountain and then into our property. It gets really complicated moving a fully built house and garage in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado.

It’s not too bad considering this is a complicated mountain home build and there are a lot of moving parts to make this happen. We are very thankful for where we are right now. The house will be finished in the next couple of weeks. We can’t wait.

Getting ready to set the crane up to put the house on the foundation.

Half of the house (about 50 tons) flying in the air! This was incredible to see. Amazing technology!

Half of the house coming into our foundation area. Our driveway is almost 800’ long. We have a very private lot - 12 acres. No one can see us here unless you’re in the air!
