Getting Colder

This is the north wall of our ground floor, I'm documenting where all the wiring is within the walls, so we'll always know where things are. Click for the larger version.


It's the outside wall so i was eager to get some insulation in before January. The ground floor now has about 65% of the wiring done.

This week we had a lovely (albeit short and very early on a monday morning) visit from April, Andy and Grace. I love this fuzzy photo in our backyard. Accidental art with the focus right at knee level. Thanks for the gifts and the great bagels! Happy Holidays to all.

Electrical

I've been a bit slow on the posts lately. That's mainly because not a lot has physically changed in a while. We've been designing the layout, planning the phasing, the materials, the lighting etc. All this takes a fair amount of time as it turns out. But it's easier with less walls to get in the way. I'll post some existing/proposed floor plans soon, just as soon as I'm ready to share.

But in the mean time, I've finally started the wiring! I've spent a lot of time reading about the rules and methods, and now it's go time. Goal is to have inspections done in January.


The existing bathroom wiring was definitely not safe.

Side note #1: Here's the view of the city core from my frequently traveled path to Home Depot. Yep, i can walk there.

Side note #2 - Finally went to see my first Maple Leafs game! They beat #1 ranked washington 6-3!
