My dad and I stopped by State Electric (and our local big box for some quickrete this evening) to pick up the stuff we needed to install our electric service for the house. (he is also installing service for a project that he has in the works now too.)

We are installing a permanent pedestal, instead of temporary service, so that we don’t have to redo it later. We’ll save a few hundred bucks doing it that way.
(Thanks “pops” for the good advice, and thanks for the freebie. My dad also had approx. 45′ of conduit he salvaged in the past to go in the ditch.)

that’s all for now
