| The discovery of the day: "Joe Peters 1907" written into the stucco around the chimney in the kitchen. Joe Peters was the father of the man we bought the house from in 1990. Pretty cool! |
 |
| Crazy wiring... |
 |
| Close-up of the top of the last photo. The electrician is coming over first thing tomorrow morning...any guesses why? |
 |
| Gutted kitchen! |
 |
| Where new meets old |
 |
| There was an old doorway hidden in the wall that our stove was on between the kitchen and the living room! |
 |
| To the basement |
 |
| Kitchen window |
 |
| More proof that our house is not square...as if we needed any |
 |
| The space above the basement door is open to the underneath of the landing at the top of the stairs going up to the room of crap |
 |
| The doorway into the living room on the right, and asbestos coated flues running up the dining room wall |
 |
| Helping. |
 |
| These two vertical 2x4s make up the ENTIRE support beam for the north side of the house. Oh boy. |
 |
| There were surprisingly only two layers of linoleum under our cork floor and one layer of tar paper before getting to the floorboards |
