Improvements
Concrete Driveway Rubble, ready for removal
We've been working on the interior design of this addition for months. Greg came out to our house, took photos, measurements, etc. Through the miracle of computers, we've been able to do most of our design discussion via the internet. On Saturday, however we wanted to talk about the exterior elevations, so we made the trip to Greg's office.
Digital Designing
It was so easy to change windows, doorways, rooflines, etc. with the architectural computer program that Greg uses. I love computers. We've finalized the exterior design, now we're waiting for the official plans. Then, it's off to the permit office, downtown! Once we get our permits, I need to call a few contractors and get some bids.

Congratulations my dear. You deserve the house of your dreams!

Hmmm, I'll email you the phone # for my contractor! After all, we can suffer together!!
Wow -- I admire you for putting up with a one-bathroom house. If anything happens to the plumbing in a one-bath house, you're the up the creek without a paddle.
I'm also impressed that you live in a 1927-era house. I live in a 1950's house remodeled to within an inch of its life, and it definitely has age problems.
So exciting! May the home repair fairies sprinkle you with happy renovation dust!
How exciting and fun! I'm oh so familiar with old buildings but not in good ways I guess!
I hope this means that your new bedroom window will NOT be within shouting distance of my parents porch - I feel for you whenever I visit! =)
Nicola! You are hilarious! NOTE for readers....Nicola grew up next door to us. She lives in NY now, but her parents are still next door.
We LOVE living next door to you guys! It's only noisy in the summer, when everyone's windows are open. For our new bedroom, the plan is to build closets on the side of the house next to your folks' place! LOL.
