Since there wasn't that much new with our house I thought I would show you what has been going on at the other 6 houses. Again I apologize for the terrible pictures (I think I will take my real camera next time and get some better pictures.) They all look so much better than a cheap camera phone makes them look.
This is house #2. This is our next door neighbor. They are at the same point we are. They too are in the holding pattern.
This is house #3. They just barely got their stucco painted yesterday. They are officially in the hold pattern now too.
This is house #4. This house is waiting for the rest of the shingles (the sub-contractors ran out last week and have yet to finish.) They are also ready for insulation, then drywall, finish carpentry, garage door, and finally stucco. It sounds like a lot but it really should be done in the next two weeks. The owner of this house, that is across the street from our new house, is our neighbor right now living across the street from our current house. Small world, eh? 
This is house #5. This is the house being prepped for the Parade of Homes. They have painted the inside and are putting the rock on the outside. They will get their cabinets, finish plumbing, and finish hardware next week. Saturday they will get the sprinkler system and then the landscaping will be done. The last thing will be the appliances and flooring. This house will be completely finished in two weeks.
This is house #6. This is the house that most of us have been working on for the last two weeks. We finished most of the projects in this house today. There are a few final things that will be done Monday and Tuesday and then this house is ready for all the sub-contractors to get it to the same place that ours is in.
And finally we have house #7. The couple that owns this house have been building it all by themselves for the last two weeks (by their request.) Now that house #6 is done the rest of us can go over and help them. By the end of next week they should have all the walls up and one week after that it should be at the same point that house #6 is at right now.
Once the framing is complete on this house we will start the finish work on all the houses, unless our supervisor decides he wants us to start some of the finish work sooner. Which he may do because Rural Housing wants all of the yards and outside work to be completely done before the Parade of Homes so that our neighborhood does not look like a war zone.
Exciting times my friends.
