    it depends on where you live. working at a water treatment plant, i know some local guys around here who haul water regularly. now, with the drought, some municipalities have already enacted water restrictions, including the filling of pools. if you live near the Mooresville area send me a PM.

    the final electrical inspection was good. now we await the final building inspection to gain our certificate of occupancy. then we can move in. we are still painting, albeit interior doors, im about sick of this shit. we work at the house after we got off from our regular jobs, eat, then we pack at the rental in preparation for the final move. hopefully it will take place this friday, saturday and sunday. i relish the days when i can hit the gym after work and then enjoy a few cold beers while preparing an enjoyable dinner and some tv or maybe a swim.

    the house passed the final, final, inspection this morning and is now approved for occupancy by this great county that we live in. we will immediately commence moving. packing at the rental here has begun, the breaking down of beds and such. i'll probly grab a u-haul in the morning for the big stuff. maybe i'll post some pics tonite if i get around to it. my home pc may be off line til the phone company hooks me up later on down the road at the new place.

    AARRRGGHHHHH!

    a little south of town, about 1/2 mile down from the new Ginn racing shop and take a left on mackwood. so far we havent been annexed by the city but i see it happening eventually. id like to have the family come down on the 4th of july, and probably will, but the yard is still kinda not where i want it to be in terms of curb appeal but we're getting there. thanks for the good words man.
