1st week of Feb....

No work monday,
Tuesday, 12 pm - Excavator showed up to unload some gravel for garage backfill.
Wed, 8:30 am, Excavator showed up to unload more gravel, prep for backfill inspection (I think).
Backfill Inspection passed on Wed.
Backfill completed Thursday...
Framing to start Friday


Side note, today, our side neighbor called to tell us that our outside water appeared to be running. Sure enough, I opened back window and could hear the water running outside myself.

Noone can get to it from outside to turn it on, so wondering how this happened...
I shut the water to the outside to off position from the inside, but will have to investigate how/why this turned on by itself suddenly (is that even possible, or has it been running for days?)....
Cooincidentally, our AC unit was moved when excavators were moving dirt. Possibly, water spigot was bumped or something, but Greg has been outside and looked at foundation walls last week, he would've heard/ noticed water running...

Should we be concerned about pipe freezing on outside? I'm going to check into it and see...
A new water service is planned to be installed, which would be new water pipe, replacing this one....
probably nothing to worry about, but checking anyway...is 27 degrees here today
