Wow, sounds like I found the right forum. Guys who love tractors and have single daughters my age. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Too bad Alabama is so far south.

Will do. More pictures to come in 2 weeks as we pull the roof off to re-board and re-shingle the center section and shed/garage roof. Yes, my daughter will be up there helping me do the work. She did this to the second floor bedroom.

I also replaced the two vertical 8x8's in the wall including the corner post. The wife kinda flipped when she say that I cut a hole through the living room walls to insert a 8x8 to lift the house up to replace the beam.

The fix.

The house now as it is getting finally put back together. The lower window has all new wood for the sill, one side and the top. I'm working on rebuilding the windows also. I had to replace the muntins in between some of the glass. What a job this old house is getting to be.

Are you insulating the walls? Poured, foamed, or fiberglass?

Were the timbers rotted from moisture getting in along the 'way'?
Your work looks great, and your committment even greater.
