We visited the property on Friday (06/17/2011) and Saturday (06/18/2011). We received the lumber on Wednesday, (06/15/2011) and the PM stated that they will finish backfill on Monday and will begin the framing process Monday afternoon. That is about a day and half ahead of schedule.
The following are a few pictures of the wrapping...

we plan to follow-up to make sure there is no confusion. |
