Down Came the Tree

We had a serious tree problem. Rotting the porch, clogging the gutters, blocking the view, blocking the sun.

We no longer have that problem. Thanks Sav-a-Tree. Guess this one wasn't saved, but it will give the beautiful maple some breathing room.

Guts and Bolts

One really important thing to do (or so I have been told) is to take photos of the guts of your house before the plaster/sheetrock goes up. Then you know where all of your electrical and plumbing are... should something go awry, voila! You have a record of where everything is before you start hacking into your gorgeous walls.

The photo above isn't of the guts... but it does show how the back of the house is shaping up. No more color panels thank goodness!

And to really keep you you on the edge of your seat, I present THE INSIDE OF OUR KITCHEN WALL.
