The Dam & The House!

Things are really happening now!

In case you haven't heard, David & Grace made an offer on the Gumport house that was accepted! They are in process of the myriad of steps that will hopefully get them to their scheduled closing around the end of October. We're all wishing them well and helping when we can. We're pulling for you two!!

That piece of equipment in the foreground is Kenny Bell's. The picture was from September 16th and he was starting to stage some of his equipment in preparation to begin on the dam. And begin he did!! Kenny and his crew started moving stuff on Monday, the 25th. And Eric ran right up there to be part of it all ;)  Here's a picture from today, Tuesday, the 26th. Boy, I can't wait to see it this weekend!!

So, in a week's time we should have a much better idea of how things stand cost wise. Kenny thinks we'll be ok (we told him we had made our fundraising goal $15,000). We did come pretty close to our goal and some folks have indicated a willingness to add additional if need be. Our current bank balance is $13,750 and here's how we got there:
