demo complete! and other fine happenings......

We had dinner in the country last night, pork chops and potato wedges, also some carrot sticks and happiness in a cup (instant pudding cups). And don't forget the sweet tea and candles, which were totally unnecessary because the sun was really beaming through the window. I cooked in town and then brought it out. We spent the late afternoon into evening actually finishing the demolition on the main level. This included blowing all the stuck on insulation out of the rafters thoroughly, so it looks really cleared out. We are considering some revised plans that could enable us to move in quickly and use two levels instead of the basement if someone should buy the town house soon. I cleaned windows, they now look half way decent and what a moral booster that was. Later I'll find a before and after of THAT drastic difference. The front door even looks halfway presentable! It's amazing how just removing 20 years of dirt, grime, and fly poo will make that much difference. Oh, and I also got lights! They even operate with a switch.

These small pictures are the other fine happenings. The boys have been spending a lot of time out here working on Bryan's truck. Sam has been practicing his blacksmithing too. If you can't tell what they are doing, Bryan is blowing his carpet out with an air hose, a new form of rug beating? Bruce is stripping paint off of the grill to repaint. Good projects are going on and there's no time to be bored.
