It's official! We have a big orange sign in a ziploc bag nailed to one of the trees in our front yard.
This, more than looking at hundreds of plans, wrangling over exteriors and figuring out where we want fireplaces, makes it official.
After an hour or so (in the lovely company of a truly superior county employee) in the big city of Raleigh and writing a check for $846, we walked away with this. It lets the county septic people know that it's OK to examine our land to determine where our septic system needs to go to accommodate the new house.
Isn't it funny that before everything else...the vessel sinks I've been drooling over, the ice maker, the gas stove, the children IN ROOMS ON THE SECOND FLOOR FAR AWAY FROM THE MASTER BEDROOM....the first step is what we are going to do with our sh*t?
