Sara Schafer, erstwhile PR maven and exterior siding specialist par excellence, called in late last night to tell us how things are going.
Sara reports that "today Wednesday we actually accomplished quite a bit. It was the first time since Day 1 that night and day crews worked together for the whole day. Here a couple of things that happened."
"About 98% of the deck was completed. Just a few more facia boards are needed to complete the whole thing. The railing was completely installed; unfortunately, we were not able to stain it because of the fear of rain during the night. Inside the house, the touchups, sanding, and painting were all worked on. The final coat of paint will be applied first thing in the morning."
Sara goes on to gush that "last night we found out that we were 4th out of 11 of the teams that have all of our electrical components installed and inspected. Because of this we were able to get grid-locked early and also received a bonus 28.9 kW hours. With those bonus hours we will be able to get some of the more vital operations complete without suffering the loss of the initial power. Good news though...today we generated 9 kW hours for our personal use...producing more than we actually used!"
"We also assembled the coffee tables, end tables and dining room table today.
The guttering was almost completed as well."
Meanwhile, there is a weather advisory in the District today. A cold front is blasting through the area that will have winds gusting to 40 mph. Should be interesting.
