My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

temperature swing

7 months ago

It got up to almost 100F today, and it's supposed to drop to 40F or below tonight. A 60F temperature swing. Welcome to Texas. I put out all my peppers last week, and have protection over them now for tonight and tomorrow night. But that protection is currently VERY well ventilated, to keep from cooking them.
