Then and Now

This is a photo of the front of the house, taken by my mom in the Spring.


Here is a photo today of the same side, slightly different angle, after Marshal's cousin, Steve, put up the window trim. He took wood from our salvage pile, cut and prepainted it before nailing it up. He is one amazing general contractor. All the progress and beauty is mostly due to him. The house was re-roofed last week.

Here is the original sagging roof line of north east section of the house.


Cousin Steve is giving the house a literal face lift. He rose the peak three feet with scissor trusses.


Newly insulated and ventilated roof, complete with bird blocks and fascia board. Steve installed the windows and doors complete with trim in a day. He even had the old garage cedar lapboard re-cut and nailed up! I was impressed!
