Well, we originally planned to build an addition (laundry room & garage) first. But, that plan was delayed a bit due to unexpected 40' setbacks. Our plans were about 5' too big. Back to the drawing board on that one...
So, we dug into stuff we can do...DEMO!

yep, it turns out that all the interior walls are stacked "planks" too! |

exterior wall stacked up on top of this beam. |

Here's the entry way now after removing the closet and an added wall,
removing all the paneling and plaster from the original wall on the left.
That wall will actually be removed soon though... |
