Thanks guys.
Yesterday they installed the fire rated sheet rock on the wall between the house and garage. It had to go all the way up to the roof because I'm not going to finnish the rest of the insulation and sheet rock for a while. We also blocked the opening inside wher'e the window used to be. We insulated and put blue board so it can be plastered.
Here are some pictures.











The electrician is checking what is needed to pass code for the occupancey permit. He'll give me a price. The garage door guy I got some parts off is getting me a price on a high lift track kit. He's waithing to hear back on a price. I'll call him later today.

Not too much last week so I waited to get something to post. Last week they came to get the pile of waste form in front of the house. Just in time to miss the snow. So nice with that gone.
Today the electrician showed up and started the ruff in for thr electric. They ran the wire for the power to the house from the panel in the garage. The house will stay on temporary power for a while longer but will only need the connection at the meter when we're ready. The're putting one light out side the man door, plus one inside, a receptical and a heat detector. Also putting power for the Liftmaster and buttons at each door to operate the door.I'll put more later when my wallet recovers.

Here are some pictures.

Wayne --

I just went back to review the outside over all shots -- I don't know how ANYONE could complain about what you've done with your house.... You neighbor must be a real "piece of work".

I have an "old" neighbor right in back here -- and there's no question that if I fire up the BBT (Big Bouncy Truck) at 4:30AM... I fully understand him being a little "PO'd"... but it's only 4 or 5 times a year... Diesels are noisy - not much I can do about that. But one day I was working on the Nomad -- with the shed door slightly up -- and it's 4:30 in the afternoon - and this butthead comes over to complain.... When that happened -- I just told him to get the f outta here... No point in even trying to be nice at that point. He won't come back. I think he knew he'd crossed the line then.

I hear you Greg. She drives me nuts. My wife worried about the door going up so she couldn't see inside the garage. I could care less what she thinks. I don't do things to agravate the situation but I'm all done walking on egg shells for her. I can't wait for the first fire up on the Camaro That should get things buzzing.

I have a neighbor that hates me also. She came over one day and tried to bitch me out for no good reason (I had about a half-dozen hot rods out front that day). Well, I had a good buzz going and I had some friends over at the same time. Needless to say that I put a show on for my friends and embarassed the hell out of her at the same time. Don't think she's coming back anytime soon
