Thermostat for the electric heater. Accurate enough for fermenting yogurt too.

I got the house blocked up on solid piers. It doesn't rock at all when we walk around! I also strapped it to the anchors. It feels good to have the "due diligence" done. But we still are relying God's protection for big winds, of course!

Cranking in the earth auger house anchors. I put in most of them until the 3/4in shaft started twisting instead of rotating. I stopped before I twisted them off!

Last load of our stuff, heading to our new house. After closing out our Apartment.

We had one gas leak when we turned on the gas. Got that fixed, and now we have running hot water! Also, checked the last of the water fittings for leaks (no leaks), and hooked up the washer. Alas, the washer didn't run correctly. Maybe something rusted while it sat for a year.

Wiring the breaker box while fresh bread bakes.

Installed the faucet. I tried repairing an old one, but when I couldn't get the drill-out brass to thread, I gave up and bought a new one. So. Much. Easier. We now have running water... But no hot water yet...
