Renovation “Before” Pictures!

Hello! I promised to show you some pictures of the ongoing renovation, so here’s where we’re starting from. These are all “BEFORE” pictures, and if all goes well, I’ll eventually have some “AFTER” images for you too! As you can see, there’s a lot to be done, but not a lot of HARD stuff, so we can whittle away at it an hour or two a day. My Dad just retired so he doesn’t want to do much more than that either!

Kitchen Cupboards

This is my pet project. I want to punch a big hole through the wall to let the light through from the kitchen to the living room. This will be interesting…

Master Bedroom Carpet

Master Bedroom Carpet

40 year old carpet in the master bedroom. Definately original, since we had to CUT it away from the wall. The walls were constructed after the carpet was laid down.

Snow! More than we've had at once in 15 years!

Here’s what it’s like outside right now. Believe it or not, that’s a five foot tall fence with three feet of snow against it.
