Logs Delivered

Hello Everyone

The logs were delivered today and with more than a few problems they are safe on the new home site. One of the first problems was the fork lift arrived an hour late. The logs were too long to go down the road so they were taken off the tractor trailer and stored on our neighbors front lawn on Rt 53. We just met them today and they saved us more headaches. We also met another neighbor on Istimus Rd. which was very helpful and took many pictures for us. We are lucky to have such great new friends and neighbors. Anyway the fork lift kept on breaking down and they had to call the mechanic to fix it. Another 2 hours wasted. They had to go back to Bristol and pick up another trailer to move the lumber from the neighbors lawn. The driver of the fork lift was just a truck driver and was slow moving. He was not use to the equipment. HS Construction had two members to help with the logs for the day which was good. Rick & Kate the Lincoln logs dealer were also there to help and count the building materials coming off the truck. K W Foundations was also on site to remove the forms of our new basement walls. We had a beautiful warm day in the 70's with the threat of rain all day, but with only a few drops of rain to speak of. After all work was completed it was 5pm. Patti ordered a port-a-potty which also arrived today. She also kept everyone happy with food and drinks. I'm so lucky!! The contractor talked to the foundation and excavator on the phone which was real good for communications for the rest of the job. Patti also ordered the foundation to be sprayed tar for a sealer.
