Well, here are a few pictures of the progress on our house over the weekend. I guess I didn't get any photos of what Jere did in the basement, where he spent most of his time and energy getting the last of the support structures in place. However, here's what happened in the house.
We took out the window between the entry and living room, and added support there for the new drywall to be fastened to.
Here's from the entry side. On this side, we'll be putting wood paneling on to hopefully match what's there, and then putting in a cabinet with a utility sink and some counter top, and some shelving. Plus tile for the floor. I can hardly wait to USE the mud room!!
Here's the opening for the old basement stairs. It had been covered over and the area used for a closet. We'll be widening and lengthening the opening and putting decent stairs in one of these days...
Jere tore down the old chimney chase, and took out a bunch of the duct work. He'll be re-installing it along with a chimney, and rebuilding the chase smaller than the original, so we'll actually have room to walk around the kitchen table.
And, here's the scholar busily at work at his desk!
Also, some very good news that we've sold TWO more puppies!!! And have quite a number of other people asking about the rest. That is thrilling! Here are the sold ones:
Caliper, going to PA
Corkie, going to MN
