On Saturday, Oct 18^th we spoke to Jimmy Hale; ha had been in Jury duty the whole week. Although he had not been there, he said there had been people working in the house and that he would be there this coming week…

I don’t think the house will be ready on Nov 1^st as he had committed to before; he did say that it would be ready for the appliances delivery on Nov 4^th and that when we go on Nov 14^th we will be able to stay in the house…

Later that day, at around 11, Scotty Newman called; he said he was sitting in his porch and that it was 55 degrees and sunny, crisp, and that the changing colors of the leaves were glorious… He said he would be going by the house to take a look and would report back…

Jimmy suggested I sent Beth an e-mail requesting an updated spread sheet; I did. We are looking forward to all the updates and to our Nov 14^th trip!
