You’re honoring the history of the house as well as all who lived in it. They likely did the best they could with the resources they had at the time (scraps), which got it this far. But what you’re creating will stand proud for you and future homeowners for at least another hundred years if not two. It’s clear that you love the place. Thank you for sharing it’s past and present. It’s got a great future ahead!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1918422105938650986.post-25955217944490271132023-01-25T19:44:08.950-05:002023-01-25T19:44:08.950-05:00This is beyond belief but will be fascinating to w...This is beyond belief but will be fascinating to watch you turn it into your dream cottage.
