1 day a week for 21 weeks straight I have dedicated my self to laboring to make this project happen ON THE WRONG PLOT OF LAND!!! I can not even convey the stream of emotions I have gone through since I discovered the mistake. It all started because I was attempting to get the project site on the map on thePOOSH.org and it was showing up in the “wrong place”….or I have been in the wrong place. I am not arrogant enough to assume that I know more than google earth so I looked into things. It took a few minutes to track the right page down and then I had to open internet exploder because I couldn’t look at the plot maps online using google…anyway when I looked at the deed and looked at the plot maps I could clearly see I was in fact in the wrong. I wasn’t sure what to do so I gave Pug a call. You all might remember him from the post Neighbors. He’s the guy that offered to help with getting a driveway in. He is also a builder and as soon as I told him I could tell it kind of blew his mind. He got off the phone long enough to take a look at some plot maps himself and sure enough I am supposed to be directly across the street from Pug, not down the street. Bottom line is the lady from the real estate office made a mistake when she showed me the plots and then again when she marked the plot for me. You know this is one of the things I was worried about. I still have the e-mail I sent her asking her to please meet me out there because I wanted to make sure I was certain which plot it was before closing. We talked on the phone later and she told me she had marked it with pink tape for me and that I shouldn’t have a problem finding it. You can see the bits of pink marking tape in some of the early blog pictures.
On the good side I have friends getting involved and we will be having a work party there this Sunday to try to get as much of my stuff as possible moved to the correct plot. The real estate lady says she will “get it right” and I am trusting her that she will do so. If you can lend a hand let me know. The property is in Ravenel on Fox Dr and I should be there by 11am. Many hands make light work!
