A late update on our May 18 through the 23rd visit to the property.
The drive out was a very long day. It normally takes us about 7 hours but this time, because of a mudslide on Highway 3, took us over 12 hours. Sigh…
The snowpack this year is 120% of normal and with the recent hot tempatures plus some severe thunderstorms, our river was at a very high level. It wasn’t quite as high as last year, but it was high and muddy. It started to drop after we arrived and has continued to drop since we left.
We met with our builder this trip and finalized the last piece of information needed to get our building permit approved. Now there is nothing standing in our way of getting started, except our builders schedule. We are planning to head back to our property on June 8th with the hope of getting the house and garage staked out and begin excavation for the footings. Hopefully no more delays!!!!
