HVAC, data network

Sara and Michael took the day off today to spend the entire day at the property doing some catch up things.  Much of the work was getting the cabling for the data network punched down and cleaned up. 
Meanwhile, Rommel is very excited to see the new 7.1 decoder for the media room... she's enoying it now in the hotel room as she heard these things run very warm and this is like a built-in warm cat bed.
Also good news is Frontier Communications finally got on site to put the DSL and voice lines in.  The tech from Frontier was quite impressed (or maybe it was stunned) at the size of the data network for the house.  He told he's not even seen a business infrastructure room wired so cleanly and thoroughly... I guess Michael's years of managing infrastructure in all those field sales office is paying off :-)
Also very exciting for the day was seeing the HVAC ducts get installed.  To build the industrial / loft theme in the house, we are going with full exposed stainless steel duct work through most of the house.

Hoping to see the drywall folks back on site on Wednesday to get that finished... and ideally seeing roof and septic in place end of this week / early next week.
