The Wandering Monk is due in an hour to commence the first and worst of the remaining structural projects on Ye Olde Wreck. I thought he’d be here last week, but … life.<\/p>\n
There are eight projects for the rest of this year, three substantial and five mini. Compared with the work we did in May, what’s left is nothing. But it’s enough. <\/p>\n
Project One involves a final round of foundation work — beam, “lite” jacking, and rot repair — plus replacing a section of floor and closet wall inside. Then swapping out a tiny, crooked, frosted former bathroom window with the nice, big window we pulled out of the bedroom when we tore its back wall off. Light from a big new window will be gratifying, even if the “view” is only my fence and the side of a neighbor’s house.<\/p>\n
I’ll be minioning for I don’t know how long. I’ll sneak back in a few hours for a links post and will no doubt have construction updates as we go.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
