Electricity... Finally!

I was going to call the electricity company today and complain about my electrical not being on yet (I passed electrical inspection last week), but I decided to drive by the house first. Last week, I could tell that they ran the underground wires from the house to the pole, but they hadn't ran the line up the pole to the actual wires. You can see the wires there on the pole kind of dangling.

Well both of these pictures are from last week. I noticed today that the wires were no longer dangling and were ran all the way to the top of the pole and were connected to the live electricity wires. So I ventured down into the basement, plugged the sump pump into one of the sockets and switched the 200 amp service on. Hearing the sump pump start up without my little generator was music to my ears! I gave the HVAC guy a call and let him know that the basement should be dry from now on so he can come and install the furnace. I hope he can get that done within a weeks timeframe...
