Lots of small jobs done outside and on the reno, all the insulation in and onto the electrical and the vapour barrier soon. Yes, the pictures painted by Alex Pope in the early fiftys on the walls are gone, I tried to save them but the drywall just kept crumbling apart.Praticing with the muslin background and the flashes, here is one of the amarillis tree I am growing.

DAD!!! The Kitchen!!! Please tell me there's stainless steel involved?
Ok there Bill...beautiful flowers!!
Is that what MINE are suppose to look like if I didn't have all those leaves???
I am growing a really nice SHRUB.
Seriously...the reno looks great.
I am interested in the (is it?)cross bracing between the studs. I don't build houses or anything but I have walked through many unfinished ones, and old crumbling empty ones and have never seen that before. Is that a regional practice?
You are right that is cross bracing and even the interior walls have it. The house has a bit of a story that years ago it was skidded into Gowganda from Cobalt in the winter. If that is true and I've heard it from other sources maybe thats why it's all crossbraced as it wouldn't have been an easy task.
That really is very interesting! Maybe someone took pictures of the skidding? Wouldn't that be something? By the way, did you take pictures of the mural(s) before you began demolition?
I seem to be full of questions today.
