Mar 20th - Packing Up

We plan on heading back to Missouri tomorrow. Tonights low is supposed to be 18 here, we just had snow flurries, even though it is still 45 degrees. We are driving the CR-V and leaving the motor home here.

Below are some photos of our TN building.

Our building is behind the motor home. The red that you see is the entry door. The building is 28'x32', approx 900 sq.ft. This photo was taken from the edge of Allen Burgess Road. Our address is 1063 Allen Burgess Road, Crossville, TN; if you want to look us up. Use Yahoo maps, not Google; Google shows the wrong place.

Below is a floor plan of the building.
This photo is taken standing in the living room looking at the kitchen. The door on the left is for the bathroom. The door on the right is the main entry door, it is red on the outside.

 This photo was taken standing in the kitchen looking at the living room. Bedroom #2 (future) is on the right.

This photo was taken standing in the living room looking at the future bedroom. It is now my tool room. The framing on the right if for closets. The "master" bedroom is on the other side of the closets.

This is the bathroom. We did it when we were here in August 2011.

 This photo was taken standing in the "master" bedroom and looking into the utility area, which is located behind the bathroom. The heat pump air handler is in the attic area above the bathroom and utility room.

I had hoped to get all the wiring in the exterior walls and to install the insulation in the exterior walls this trip. I have the runs from the panel to all the different areas but did not get all the outlets installed. I only got about 15% of the wall insulated. A contractor is supposed to come blow about a foot of insulation in the attic area.

I had not planned on building the closet area this trip but am glad to get it done.

I'm hoping to buy a used refrigerator, range and microwave from the Habitat Re-Store where we volunteer Friday afternoons. I'd like to bring them with me when I come back the first or second week of April.

The neighbors finally got their well drilled. The stopped trying for water in the first hole after drilling 300'. They had a guy come out and "witch" for water. He had them move the drilling a relatively short distance (maybe 100-200 feet, I don't know for sure) and told them that they would hit water at about 150'. Yesterday, at 140' they hit water. This morning the water level was at 100'. I'm not sure why the wanted to drill a well rather than just hook up to the county water line.

Enough of a book for today. Hope you all had a good day. May God bless you and yours.
