The modules are here!
I just checked to see if the trucks had arrived in Castiac, a neighboring truckstop town. I didn't find them so I decided to get some gas and head home. As I pulled up to the pump I saw one of our modules and completely bypassed the gas station.
Here's what I saw:
Entry Module
I was immediately nauseated and nervous with excitement and I never thought I would react that way. In fact, almost two hours later, I am still nervous! I have to mention that in person the house is so beautiful, even without the siding, flooring, deck and paint.
I looked inside two of the modules and they look so terrific. I cannot wait for the set date tomorrow. I took the truck drivers back to the property for a dry run on the way back.
Our foundation was completed today as well. We found a local concrete contractor to fix the remaining anchor bolts. Talk about close timing!

Dreams do come true
Congratulations to Sara, David, and Greg... I can't wait to see it in place and ready to go... So will there be video? At this point, I don't care if it's live...
sort of feels like..
..you are having a baby.
Oh no! After it arrives you discover that was the easy part!
House is set!
I just came back from setting the house. David is with the Valgardsons doing a walkthrough and I'm here while Walter naps. The crane is still packing up. It took longer than expected. We had to cut down some tree limbs and then the trucks had a hard time getting out of the truckstop and they were also called out of order. No accidents though...
I have to mention how awesome it looks! Greg, you did such a FANTASTIC job! We got to walk around inside and it feels really roomy and I cannot believe this is our first home. I'll post pictures and video tonight.
Sara
Awesome!
Thank you for the kudos, but we have all read your blog and we all know that you and David have done the fantastic job that got you to this point.
Irontown
Iam looking at using Irontown as my manufacturer. Would you use them again? Hard to find modular info that youy can trust. Most of it is "Company RAH RAH" stuff.
Thanks, herb, scooter1983

How cool!
visitor: "Hey, great house" you: "Yea, the minute I saw her at the truck stop I knew she was mine." :)
Really, really excited for you guys. Can't wait to see more pics!
