Monson slate, North Jay granite, Warren Red Birch, Maibec shakes…today will be known forever more as “Bid Specification Day.”  (Always the last Tuesday before Black Friday)

At 8:00 this morning, we sat down in front of a table in Portland filled with construction details.  Shingles, shakes, flooring, metal roofing, ventilation membrane, windows, counters — you name it, we saw and talked about it over the next two hours.

Each and every item is now listed in a 12 page bid specification package.  There are a few little details to be cleared up in the plans and packages to our four contractors should go out next week.

And I’m guess that our next new special day will be “It Costs That Much? Day”  Always the last Wednesday before Christmas.
