David asked the inspector to inspect the hurricane straps since they will be covered by the siding. As we expected (and hoped), the inspector did not give us a hard time "just because". David will need to add some straps around the door and window framing upstairs, and there needs to be brackets on the back porch pilings. The inspector did not comment on the fact that the those pilings (4x4) are way undersized for how long they are!
The siding guy's 1.5 to 2 weeks are up on Monday. My guess is that he is still another week or two out. I'll probably wait until next Friday to call him.
David has been working electrical - all the boxes for the under-house lights are in. We are still getting quotes on AC. We have two more to get and then we'll make our decision. David is aiming for the 4th of July to get the rough-in inspection. Once that's done, we can start sheetrock.
