Can you believe... that people that owned the place in 1954 stopped by? Well, the son that lived there.
He actually lives in Florida now and they were in town visiting. He was born in 54 and grew up his whole life (till 18 of course) in the house. Too bad I wasn't there, but Rick took him for a good tour of the house. He gave us his parents contact info too. We heard that the prior owners used to own the Shop n Saves in Pittsburgh - its true!
AND - THAT BLUE CARPET HAS BEEN THERE SINCE 1954!!!
60 years!!! HOLY #$@^!!! I still can't believe that. All considering, it was in great shape before we removed it (it just had cat piss stains all over it)
 |
| In case you forgot what that blue carpet looked like. Its all gone now! |
- Electricians, Ernie and Tom, are doing some serious work. Kitchen is all wired! Other than I found out they are smoking in the house, things are going well.
- Kitchen to be dry walled this weekend.
- ALL carpet removed
- Staining started, looking great!
- Tom has ~2 weeks left of going to Ohio. His 14 hour work days are about to be over!!! I can't imagine the progress we would have had, if he had worked even just a 10 hour day close to home. He will be able to get there around 4:30 every day now. AWESOME!!
- Had HVAC units checked out. BOTH air conditioning units are dead. GOOD THING we have a home warranty!!
Okay, here is the video we took on Sept. 16. I will load another video very soon to compare!!
