Neighborhood project






Summer project, the owner of the Grapes of Wrath house has been steadily chipping away at fixing for a past year or so.  He started out with a new roof and went clear down to the rafters....and left the red rusty crusty paint intact.  Earlier this spring the part of the house that stuck out into the backyard and may have contained the kitchen was demolished right down to the ground and they moved some ground as well.  Just this past week the gentleman dug out some white pain and has been painting it in carefully all by himself with his dog giving advice now and then.  It will be nice when the little pre-war bungalow is completely rehabed. I think our neighbor may move in then.
Oh and he put in a new foundation.  At least the druggies don't hang out there anymore.  Thanks, neighbor!!
