a summary of many years (grand total still to be determined!) worth of work by one man to restore and rebuild an abandoned 1803 colonial cottage, along with endless landscaping work...

work on the front porch continues
Over the past few days I've been chipping away at the front porch, I expanded it a bit from the original and we're enclosing the right half where i'm working now to make a larger dining area. I finished the new foundation wall for the enclosed half of the porch/dining area, its half concrete block and half wood framed. With support posts in place I've started removing the old exterior wall and a row of blocks from the old foundation so I can tie in to the floor joists. I installed enough floor joists to get a 4x8 sheet of subfloor down so that I could start framing some walls for support before i go any further down the line of taking down the old exterior wall and foundation.
