Our Queen Anne

  In February 2003, we bought an old house built in 1905.  It had been neglected for many years, and so the renovation began.  
     
  Before and After  
How we first saw this house. "Click for larger image"  One of the coldest, snowiest, winters ever. "Click for larger image"  Back of house. "Click for larger image"
Now it's summer. "Click for larger image"              Front of house. "Click for larger image"              Back of house. "Click for larger image"
Many hours spent hovering 35 feet in the air with a paintbrush attached to a stick painting and scraping all those dormers and only one broken window in the process.  A lot of hard work, sore feet, cussing, painting scraping, sanding, sawing, hammering, cleaning... I think it was all worth it.  And I now hate extension ladders. 

Our First Garage

The keeper of the topless Jeep, the Stratus, four lawnmowers (don't ask), bike, lumber, and countless other stuff.  The truck must stay off to the side by itself.
