Remodeling Progress

The remodeling is at the halfway mark more or less.  I'm leaving for SF today to pack up my things and move.  So much to do in the next few weeks.  Stressful.

I can't believe it will be finished when I return.  Below are pictures from the remodel.  We found hinged panels and a trapdoor behind my front staircase.  We think there may have been a speakeasy in the house during prohibition.  The hinges, etc are all very old.  Gotta do some research into the history of the house.
