I finally finished excavating! The
stairs in the second picture should look familiar. Go back a couple
of years and you can see them in pictures I took from underneath the
place.
Digging was incredibly boring. I came
across concrete that dried in someone’s wheelbarrow more than
twice, the occasional leftover piece of tile from the master
bathroom, lots of extra scraps of the original countertops and some
bits of the original flooring. The original cabinets were probably
wood with turquoise walls in the kitchen/paneling in the adjacent
area and these as the floor and countertop.
Now that the digging is complete it’s
time to start replacing joists again. This time I had a huge shipmen
of lumber dropped off from Lowes instead of making numerous trips
back and forth to get it. By the middle of the month 11 of them were
replaced, but there was a growing transmission issue with the wife’s
car and we needed to do something about it.
