While you're excited about the house, go build yourself a little
"safety vault". It doesn't have to bee too big. Take a copy of your
plan and put then inside of something like a 4" plastic pipe with caps
of both ends. Throw in all of your photos (on paper from a real
printer, not an inkjet). Then throw in a copy of your building permit,
site plan, construction contract, title report, pics of your septic and
field, etc. Label the "pipe' from every direction and slide it into
something with a double-layer of sheetrock on all sides -- maybe
between floor joists or exposed studs in your mechanical room.

Then, 20 years from now when your're going old and senile and you need
to look at something, you'll have your docs.

There's a 99% chance you'll never need the docs. But if you do ....

Pat,

You're appealing to my obsessive-compulsive side. You shouldn't
encourage me. But that's a good idea. Thanks. Actually, I was
thinking about stamping our last name and the year into the foundation
someplace. Maybe I should just include the URL for MyNewOldHouse.com.
:-)

Thanks,
John

Again, this was something I did on our last house too.
In the corner of the garage conc slab while it was still wet I put my wife's
and my initials and the year and a 2002 1/2 dollar.
