Thanks. Unfortunately The City denied the claim today stating that the storm drain depression wasn't deep enough or far enough into the street to cause that kind of damage. I respectfully went on record as disagreeing with their decision and opened a claim with my insurance. Hopefully my insurance can continue the matter on my behalf. To be continued. Perhaps I should have started this process with my insurance first. To be continued.
Love the look of the wall pak lights, same thing I am going to use over both 12 ' doorsAnother plumber has flaked on the job. We have a third one coming out next week to look at the job. The GC has been trying to line one up since January. We've managed to stay busy and work around the plumbing up to this point.
The GC is also having a very difficult time locating mineral wool insulation. He says part of that is the lack of knowledge by local suppliers on the product itself. Most go with fiberglass around here. The interior liner panels have been on the job site for at least a week.
The outdoor lights are installed. To avoid drilling the posts and staying within recommended height for motion sensing, the electrician's ran the wiring for one of the security flood lights externally. There are wall paks over each bay in case I have to wrench outside at night. One dusk to dawn barn light over the man door.
The building passed electrical inspection a while back. We're waiting on the local POCO to pull the cable from the transformer and install the meter.
Thanks. Maybe when you're power guys get here we can finally see if the wall pak's work. Can you send a plumber and a concrete crew over also?Love the look of the wall pak lights, same thing I am going to use over both 12 ' doors
I have contacted my local power guys, they said they will come out and hook you up
Thanks. I currently have the full Ring system and although it's good with motion I found it lacking in facial recognition and capturing plates. Being married to the cloud was not appealing either. My property is at the end of a long dirt street but because the road continues around the back of my house, people think that it's a through street and end up trying to turn around in my backyard. My property is also backed against a public trail system so we get the occasional wanderer.
This is the company's used and new closeout website offerings. They have great customer service and are geared more for dealers and licensed installers but will not hesitate to help out individual buyers.
On The way.............Thanks. Maybe when you're power guys get here we can finally see if the wall pak's work. Can you send a plumber and a concrete crew over also?
Great to hear, glad my guy finally showed up...............have to cut him some slack he did drive from West Virginia.The build is back on at the Empty Cup. I finally got a plumber. The contractor trenched to the well yesterday and put sand down.
The first load of insulation also arrived. I'm using Rockwool. Sourcing 24" proved quite difficult but the contractor ended up finding a local supplier across the pond in Seattle which makes delivery convenient. I'm having R-39 put in the ceiling and R-23 in the walls.
Sill no power to the site yet. The Poco contractor came buy and looked at the job a couple of days ago but has not been back since.
I'll definitely cut him some slack. I'm just happy that a plumber is going to show up...with tools. Hey Scott, you got a lead on a good West Virginia line serviceman to hook up my power?!!Great to hear, glad my guy finally showed up...............have to cut him some slack he did drive from West Virginia.
Last time I checked, Western Washington has a propensity for rainfall that's why the serviceman carry sump pumps in their truck. Dry vaults and hand holes don't exist up here in May. 
Congratulations!Thanks Scott!Great to hear
Very cool! Even better your wife brews beer...............Thanks Scott!
A buddy of mine made this plaque for the garage. He's recently taken up woodworking, by burning designs and using resin and lacquering techniques. This one is Leopardwood. It's going to be a good conversation piece because of the amount of symbolism within. It was a pleasant surprise to get this in the mail along with some Scandinavian yeast for brewing. My wife brews beer so she's looking forward to trying the new yeast.
Talofa uso, faafetai. I've only seen Tutuila in pictures. I've gotten as close as this geothermal power plant in New Zealand but have never been to American Samoa. It seems that we might have a few things in common.
Oh wow! The world can be a very small place. I've never paddled a Tahitian paopao. It looked like it took good balance to fly the ama. Unfortunately I've never heard of Spike before. I was in Wellington and Hamilton in 2014 with Transpower to control the North and South Island power grid.
Why yes I have. One of my best friends on the island is from Vaitogi. The Turtle and Shark area is beautiful. I am going back at Christmas hopefully if lockdown is over and flights are more regular. Our son is still there.Oh wow! The world can be a very small place. I've never paddled a Tahitian paopao. It looked like it took good balance to fly the ama.

From the photo you blend in pretty good and don't look like palagi.
I've paddled surfski's for 8 years. It takes some getting used to. You try to power stroke while balancing on a beach ball and huli all day long until the light bulb comes on. Be direct and purposeful from the catch to the exit. Don't be in a hurry. To go fast you have to go slow. It's gotta be the same for paopao's.
Did you ever travel to Turtle and Shark near Vaitoga? The Samoan family that took me in is Letuli. Their ancestor is the chief that took in the woman and child in the legend. It's on my shortlist of places to visit.
Drop in anytime. I sent you a PM.Why yes I have. One of my best friends on the island is from Vaitogi. The Turtle and Shark area is beautiful. I am going back at Christmas hopefully if lockdown is over and flights are more regular. Our son is still there.
I think the paddling technique is similar. I am actively looking for a v1, oc1, or a surfski. Kayaking is just not the same. I love V6 the best but nothing like that around here.
Sorry to blow up your thread

Very cool to see more paddlers on here!
They were ordered through the GC Permabilt. This company operates throughout all of Washington so I don't know which vendor they used. The doors are made by Cloplay. https://www.clopaydoor.com/classic#Construction. They are short panel insulated steel doors with plain lites.
