    The new two-story addition is framed, and the front porch is being rebuilt. Painting starts on the new wood windows. An interior wall is framed to straighten out a sag in the upper floor. Exterior colors are chosen, plumbing pipes are isolated from cold weather, and header-less window opening is framed. A foolproof method of laying out plumbing and electrical fixtures is shared.

    There has been major development on the 1887 Victorian. The original cedar shingles have been exposed and are in bad shape. Extensive termite damage results in additional structural work. A local community garden is visited. An existing concrete slab is made level, and a high school student works as a framer on the project. The original clay pipe is replaced with a trenchless system.
