Well, as you can see, the trim now has it's first coat of poly. This weekend, the plan is to steel wool it and put on a second coat. Hopefully, that is all it will take. We also hope to get all the walls painted too. The ceiling is done already.
The appliances are due in this Saturday and I plan to store them in the house. The next weekend, Travis and Debbie fly in and my hope is that we can install the hardwood flooring that weekend because the kitched cabinets are due in the next weekend.
I also bought a whole house water filtration system which arrived at Tim the Toolman's store Monday and I wil pick it up when I go down on Friday.
If all goes according to plan, we might be able to move in by Labor Day! Might not have bath rooms finished so that is tentative. Football season starts on Sept 2 and Labor Day is Sept 4th.

Very optimistic schedule and doubtfull we'll make it.
To date, total cost is approaching $130,000 which includes the new retaining wall, sprinkler system and boat house repairs including new metal roof and wireless lift and all new wiring and lift cables. Compared to what it would cost if we had not done all the work would be well over $150,000 at least!
