Fortuitous Discovery

While driving down to Los Angeles, I decided to stop and spend the night in St George, UT (off exit 6). Directly across the street was Chef Alfredo’s Italian Restaurant. Highly recommended.

December Update

It’s mid-December and time for an update on various projects.

Jill’s tiny house continues to progress.

Jill’s slab looking SW

The slab has been poured and cured. The blue line is the water line coming in from my basement. The white fittings are various drain and vent lines.

Insulating Jill’s Slab

Johnny is insulating his grandmother’s slab; 24 inches down. Now that the slab is insulated and backfilled AT will be erecting the walls and wrapping them with house-wrap to weatherproof the exterior.

Jill’s sewer tie-in to septic system

Also, not pictured, is the power run up from my house to Jill’s.

We expect the walls to go up this week. Jill and I are in Southern California waiting to go on a 3-day cruise to Ensenada with Jan & Mike and Terry & Voula.

I left on Monday, a day before I planned, to outrun a large storm that descended on Monday evening dropping 6-8 inches of snow. It’s planned to continue until Wednesday dropping close to a foot of snow.

After the cruise, I will drive up to Steve & Irene’s house to see them and spend the night. Tuesday morning, I will pick up Jill and we will drive back up to Casper with the first load of her belongings.
