Pre Stake DONE!

Well, after months of waiting - we were originally scheduled for the 3rd week of April, we have FINALLY completed the pre stake! Yesterday, June 24th, we headed up to our land and met our Construction Manage, Chuck. We go to work, marked the corners of the house and that was about it!

WAIT... you know its not that easy!! Well the actually staking part was, but then we were enlightened in on a little information that just basically pissed us off! WE DIDN'T HAVE TO BENCH THE LAND! The CM said we wasted the time and money and ruined our land, as we tried to discuss with the !@#$ Wayne at KHOV several times before! We we are out a couple thousand for nothing, and now on top of that, they are charging us for a few extra hours labor because they have to push dirt a little further, due to the benching! AND they are charging us for an extra truck of gravel! Boy, we just got screwed from all angles, didn't we!? Maybe those guys should have sent Chuck to do our pre-lot meeting where we were told that we had to bench the land, and we'd avoid any extra costs! Can you tell we aren't happy!?

Well on we went to meet our buddy Wayne. We did what we had to do, made some changes to the prints and signed and home we went. We met at the land at 7:30am and didn't get out of the office until after 4pm! What a long... and aggravating day! But its done and we are happy for that... on to the next step... BUILDING PERMITS! Thank God that isn't my responsibility! No pics for this day cause we were too tired to get the camera out... we'll take them next time we go up!
