Cabin Progress Report
The foundation is ready for the cabin to be delivered. I’ve been asked for a floor plan with a progress list with links, so here it is.

The next step is having the cabin delivered.
We still have to grant an easement for the water and sewer line. We own both lots, but we have to grant ourselves an easement to cross our own back yard for the water and sewer. (You know somebody must have sued somebody sometime.) The plumber, Jeremy Dills, recommended a lawyer who can “draft a permanent easement” without a survey. I hope so.
We also heard from the cabin company that we have to have a crane. There is not enough room to slide the cabin off the truck.
So, that’s where we are at. We are waiting for a crane and waiting for a lawyer. But the cabin will likely be delivered next week.
The cabin is from Westwood Cabins. You can see more photos and floor plans at www.westwoodcabins.com and www.facebook.com/westwoodcabins.
The work is done by Fowler Excavating. Taylor Fowler has managed all of the subcontractors.
