HALLELUJAH

WE HAVE A GAS METER - HALLELUJAH!!!!!

What we've been waiting for since beginning of January!




Note the lack of snow overhanging the roof



The snow fell off the roof shortly after Chris came home tonight - it made a very loud noise!!!!! 
  

Fortunately the gas man wasn't under the roof installing the meter when the roof decided to shed a winters worth of snow and ice!!! Maybe that would have been karma for making us wait so long!! Being in the US of A it probably would have been a liability issue, and they would have sued our ass!!! So I'm thankful no-one was under the roof when the snow fell!!! (kind of!).
 
SO, now we have the gas meter, the heating guys came today and are finishing the installation of the gas heating system, and when we get heat in the basement, we can have water!!!!!!! I'm hopeful we'll have a functioning bathroom and kitchen in time for Chrissy's arrival in Vail (next tuesday!!)

  2. Amen to that, you guys!!! That's the best news I've heard in a long time!
    So happy for you both. There's nothing like the simple basics in life - shelter, heat, running water!
    Love the pictures. Loved seeing your furry visitors checking out all the changes you've been making!
    Enjoy your visit with your sister.
