After almost 2 months off, it's time to tackle the messy project: taking out the unused chimney. It has to go before the missing wall can go in in the basement, and with it gone, we might actually be able to fit a new mattress up the stairs. Kitty is giving the ol' chimney one last look. (Actually, she's stalking the other cat, but anyway...)
Here are Dad and Mike starting to knock the first row of chimney brick out of the ceiling. Those are Mike's feet; for some reason he's always the one who ends up in the attic.
Here is where the chimney used to be! Do you like how I glossed over all the hard work and dusty mess? Just like HGTV!
Now to patch the steps and wall, but first, I'm going to talk Mike into putting in a laundry chute. Shhhh....
