Day 3 - 6 degrees

Heat and water turned off.  

We said a fond farewell to the radiators...and are TRILLED at the one under the kitchen sink going away for good!  Sold them to a used radiator dealer.  For enough to buy a light switch.  Maybe two.

Larry tore up the bathroom floor and found that the whole wall that is the outside wall and near the foundation has ZERO insulation.  Bare wood and air.  Filling that in with foam should cure our frozen pipes.  

The one inch of 50 year old insulation in the sink area will be replaced, so our cups won't be cold in the cupboards.  Found lots of evidence of the old mice infestation (well, the mice weren't old, but the infestation is a thing of the past)  Fond memories that I'm sure Mom, Dad and Dan will remember.

Since the ceiling is out we are having the upstairs bathroom replumbed (thanks,  Yvonne and Ric, great idea).  

This is really going fast.
Thanks for watching, we enjoy your company!
