Back in Business!

Yes, I disappeared for a while. Without getting into the details of the drama, I had to find a new contractor before the one I originally selected even started the job in earnest. So I had another delay. . . But now we’re back to work!

Demolition is almost done – the additions to the old cottage are gone, and we’re working this week to tear out all the concrete. All the gypboard in the old cottage is gone, as well as all the insulation in the ceiling. We may even been pouring some foundation this week! Now that there’s real progress being made, I promise I’ll be posting often. And I may even post some video.

Here are some shots of what thing looked like this weekend:

Got a porta potty!

Sadly, one of the glass panes in the old cottage broke:
