Portico is down ...

... and in the dumpster. Yes, it was in too poor condition to keep so we will have to build a new one.  Nowe that it is down, we found some more brick damage. No Problems, our tuck pointer can fix it. It will just take about a week.  I may need to hire a 2nd tuck pointer for a week though.

Suzy is out staining some of the rafters today. Pic of portico-less house coming soon.

Just in:

Suzy took a bunch of pics of Portico during its deconstruction. We will give them to the contractor to build us a new one.
