Progress Report

Our winter home, being constructed in Nevada, will not be finished in mid-September as tentatively predicted. Escrow closing date now looks like maybe sometime in October, material shortages have definitely been a factor.

Progress toward completion is being made, as these photos at the other DrC’s blog demonstrate. The pix appear to show a mid-project construction milestone called “dried-in” having been reached. That means should rain fall the interior will stay dry, and includes a roof at least in tarpaper, exterior walls, windows, and perhaps exterior doors.

We aren’t overwhelmingly disappointed with the slippage. NV is still hitting 100℉ temps and will be cooler in October. Here in the WY high country, by October we’ll have seen our first below-freezing night. Being a mile higher is the reason.
