Thanks Don, I am really going to like it lots better when we are through, if we ever will be!! LOL!! I think it it is going to take the rest of our lives to fix all of the problems they made when they tried to update it. All of the newer stuff they put in 30 years ago is mostly going to be gone and replaced with better lumber. They took the old wooden ceilings out of the upstairs rooms and replaced them with sheetrock or panels. They didn't just cover the old ones they stripped it out. . It is a nightmare what they did to it.
I hear the tin going up on the roof today. Yeah!!!! My son-in-law and grandson are up there working already. We should have the back of the house done today.
