// Its 1AM and we just finished cleaning the site and doing some work on controls. Sitting with me here is Ross Ruecker who is going to give some words: First, Preet's computer is very small and the lighting is terrible, so don't criticize my typing skills too much.

Working late has become a fact of life. It doesn't seem too bad any more. Well, maybe that's a lie. I've gone from construction to monitoring guy in the last week. I'm running out of time, I should have made the switch earlier.

Dan asked me if I am ready to take down the house in two days. No way, we are finally getting the home set up the way we want and then we will tear it down. There is no time for enjoyment. Its going to be frustrating taking everything down that we spent so long setting up. But I believe the final construction in DC will be worth it.

Preet here again. We'd like to thank the folks from National Semiconductor who came out and helped out on the site. John Giddings, the director of Solar Magic, has really been our cheerleader there. Thanks John! Also, we had some SCU alum come help by doing everything from staining and finishing the deck to cleaning up the site before we have some pictures.

Although this picture is from the day of the Send Off Event, we would all like to use the bed since the day it was put in.

Ross and I just closed down and are now heading out to get not nearly enough sleep. This house is going to get to DC.
