God #@%$*&* Permits!!!

Well, today was SUPPOSED to be the day the permits were approved. Our building department is a small one, and they share inspectors with other small towns in the area. Hence, they have very limited hours. I stopped in today to find out out that everything had been approved, except the zoning approval which should not be a big deal. The zoning officer is in for TWO hours each week (yes, I did say only two hours per week)All that was left was for him to come in, look at the drawings and sign off. So I show up at the office during his two hour stretch only to find a sign on the door that he had an emergency and would not be in. Ughh! Apparently he won't be back in the office for another week, hopefully.

A warning for anyone considering an inground pool....if you are the type of person that needs things done, who needs to see progress, who hates to wait....try valium :-)
