Hello from 1894!

Post by Ross »

Hello everybody!

Chaz suggested I introduce myself, and I hope I am doing this right. I have never joined a site using this format.

My name is Ross and I am restoring an 1894 Queen Anne Free Classic. I regularly blog about it:

Wow, Ross, just WOW !

I am listening to your interview, and you talk about so many complex issues related to old houses. Definitely worth a watch and a listen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLS2iiSdEB8

Ross, got to spend some time reading your blog, I must admit that is one hell of a house, and you are doing one hell of a job restoring it. I think I'll be stopping by your blog often.
