That's the "fun" of owning an older home.<br /><br />When we renovated our kitchen a few years ago we found a beam carrying the 2nd fl had just been cut . . . and because we didn't want an atrium or the 2nd fl bath in the kitchen we had to add a carrying beam for the 2nd floor! <br />Hopefully you won't find many more surprises. <br /><br />Our favorite surprise was the water leak into our basement, my husband could never find it until we ripped out the 1st fl bath as part of the reno, it seems that the previous owners had a leak, duct-taped the leak and drywalled . . . mystery solved!Ocean Breezes and Country Sneezeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13553409790617039932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4478201407511428968.post-88189882631747547222011-04-23T09:01:29.523-04:002011-04-23T09:01:29.523-04:00Steve....I just LOVE your house!

Since I'm a newcomer to the blog, I didn't follow when you were working on other parts of the house, but I will tell you that I'm shocked at how quickly you get things done. I mean wasn't it like two days ago that the dining room shelves went in? <br /><br />The plate. Ohhh.<br /><br />The worn floor. Amazing.<br /><br />But the best is the the story about that louse of a man running off and the staircase for the boarder.
