Tubs

We were lucky to uncover an old, cast iron, claw foot tub from the original bathrooms. It had been framed in so we did not realize it until it was pulled out. Below is the work done to reglaze it.

Framing the Dining Room

Has it been a month since my last post! Time flies; but the guys have been busy and much has been done.

This is the new dining room. They have torn out the roof and wall, and are continuing to frame the new roof.

After about a week, the roof for the dining room is framed and sheeted. They also installed one of the large windows.
