The promised pictures

I'm finally posting some pictures. I'm not sure how exciting they are. I hope you aren't too disappointed.

Molly is holding the vacuum so Lance can vacuum above my cupboards. They now have plants up there. Guess I will have to take some pictures. I was going to get up there but Lance didn't want to spend his trip visiting me in the hospital.

This is our 1st nail. Actually Mike used spikes. We will always have to have pictures in these places. That's ok with me. I hate deciding where to arrange pictures. And you get a glimpse at my new couch. You will have to wait to see the whole thing. Suspense!

Here they are pouring the footings for the garage.And this is several days later doing the stem walls.

This is what my garage looks like right now. Pretty fancy.

Another view of the garage. If you notice by the power pole is my power box. It had to get moved from right in front of my house to over there out of the way.
This is my phone line. I think that explains why I don't have phone service in my house.
I made arrangements with the phone company to put the line in for me and to wire my house. Of course this is 2 different jobs for 2 different people to do. The guy comes to do the line outside and asks me where it will go under the house. I tell him that I don't know, that's why I have people from the phone company come do that. He explains to me that he doesn't do that and I will have to pay an electrician to do that. I told him that I had an appt with his company to do it Tues. He says "OH, I guess I should talk to someone and see what is going on". I said, No kiddin.
I am scheduled to have dish tv hooked up to my house on Wed. Right now it is still hooked up to the camper. Imagine that.........indoor tv and phone with internet!!!
We have 3 bedrooms. One is the master bedroom. Another is the guest bedroom with bunk beds and a double bed and a closet full of boxes. The other bedroom is the "box" room. It is completely full of boxes. I have not even sorted through them at all. I'm hoping to get to them maybe this week and just sort them a bit and see what I have. I do have my necessities, but there are some bowls and lids that have not been located yet. And other things that I haven't missed yet.
All in all, things are going very well. I had some boys from the ward till my garden yesterday so I'm hoping to get it planted in the next couple of days. I expect 1 more freeze. I will use walls of water and hope the other plants are still under ground until after the frost.
I hope everyone is well and is getting ready for lots of summer fun.
