Inside Out House
We spent most of Saturday moving the seven-feet high, 20-feet wide pile of plaster, lath, paneling and drywall from the ground under Trevor's bedroom window to the 30-yard dumpster.
"Creative" exterior wiring strung on poles made it impossible to position the dumpster any closer to the house, so we needed to violate a cardinal cleanup rule, O.H.I.O. (only handle it once), by dropping trash out of the window, then carting it to the dumpster.
Sunday we puttered around the yard, cleaning and cutting grass since Dave sprained his thumb muscle and was ordered to rest his hand for a week. All of the kitchen cabinets are down except the sink base. Free vintage (probably working) 1978 washer and dryer to anyone who wants to cart them away.
