People who know me well, know that I've always liked old houses - the architectural details, the heavy wood, the plaster.
Don't get me wrong, new houses are pretty darn nice too.
But, it had always been part of my goals to buy an old house and work it into great shape. I finally realized that opportunity in Spring of 2004 when Barb and I moved into a 175-plus year-old home in a small, quiet rivertown along the Susquehanna.
The house is the once home of "The Marietta Times" newspaper and adjoins the town's original post office.
As I look around this old house, I see a whole lot that has to be done yet. As I get stronger I'm looking forward to starting work on the house as part of my physical rehab.
Now...jeesh...where to start.
