Restruction





With the roof repaired and reshingled, and most of the interior walls demolished, we started the process of rebuilding, shoring up the interior walls which over the years had become warped and out of square. This required a lot of lumber and reinforcements. Tye did most of the work though Jamie and I built a door frame or two. This work was definitely more gratifiying than knocking down walls, inhaling plaster dust or carrying loads of destroyed walls out to the bin in heavy garbage cans. Sean also pitched in to help finish most of the interior framing.
