Pictures of Progress

Starting at the street, you can tell that we are making progress.

For starters, our living room is now a storage depot of used "parts" from the house.

The windows and window frames are broken.

We have also made some discoveries. For starters, the hardwoods that were "original" to the house appear to have been laid on another set of hardwoods that were more original to the house.

And who doesn't love temporary walls to hold up your house?

It is funny to think that we are seeing wood and parts of our house that no one has since 1921. That's right, the last time someone saw certain bricks, the Great Depression was still nearly a decade away. Hard to believe.

And the real individuals portrayed as characters in my new best show, The Pacific, were not even born. And yet, here I am, another Sunday evening spent absorbed with the television. Is anyone else worried about what is going to happen to Lucky?
