More Demo

This weekend Steve and Willie came over and helped with the demolition. We are now down to having to tear down our bedroom, bathroom, and about 1/8 of the kitchen. I think we should be done with it this weekend - that is if we have three people working on it. We did decide to not bother with trying to tear down around our bathroom, so now instead of having a quasi outhouse, we have nothing. Nothing but trees or a porta potty. Luckily though, my in-laws live next door so we can go over to their house and use the facilities. I figure the more I rough it, the more I will appreciate it when the new house is done. And I only have about a month to go.

As far as progress on the house that is being built, it is coming along. Last week the trim went up (baseboards, door and window trim, window sills, closet shelves and rods, etc. The painters were there this morning, so I want to get home before dark to see what it looks like. I will definitely post pictures of that tomorrow. The mason is supposed to come Saturday to put the stone up on the fireplaces.

I keep expecting to find something interesting under the trailer, but so far this is about it (unless you count socks and jeans being used as draft blockers in vents)
Well this is kind of interesting. All the white things are dirt dobber nests that were behind the panelling in the old kitchen.

No more hallway One more shot of the old bedroom. Like the aluminum foil on the window?
