Gazing at Loopy Wires

 I couldn't think of what else to call this post-- who would come here to look at wiring? Oh well, it's all part of a house build and WHAT a difference it makes in life. It means things like refrigeration and hot water:)

Don't ask me how that bathtub went upstairs. It was too scary to chronicle in pictures.

And would you believe (and I think if you are a long time reader of this building series you would) that we took hundreds of photos of the plumbing and wiring, but there are still places that we somehow had just off camera, and those are the places where we just happen to have to saw through the wall. A note to the DIY builder: it's never enough. Take high resolution panoramas and a thousand more photos of wires than you care to have!

The electrician patiently instructed us about placement of outlets above the finished floor, how to wire this switch and that plug, and some of these things began to be left for our boys to finish up. It was a good education and I am glad that the electrician was willing to do a bit of teaching so we could DIY some of the house wiring. I'm sure he left shaking his head a few times but at least we are no longer helpless electrically.
