They're here!

The email came Wednesday afternoon!  The blueprints are ready.


I know we expected them at the end of February, so actually they are 3 days late, but I was still startled by the news.  Each step makes this more real.


Send them to Dan's office was the reply.

And of course in good Toronto fashion we anticipate overnight delivery - ya right!

Friday's message - how long for delivery?   probably 5 days - just wait - they'll arrive!

And so they did today.  What seemed like a little roll of paper.

The first thing was a drawing of the lot with the house positioned on it - the first time we have ever seen that - exactly how it fits, the drive, the house, the pool - very neat!

Page after page, floor plans, foundation drawings, plumbing, electrical, roof plans - we are supposed to sign off on all this technical stuff - oh my god!  and even better - - it's all in Spanish!!

Brought it home.  Lisle excitedly took it downstairs and unrolled it.  I went down 20 minutes later and said - so what do you think?   It's too much to take in - was the reply.

Guess we will start into the review tomorrow!
