More changes

When Bill was young, he and a cousin made concrete blocks for a chicken house here at the farmhouse. Last year the roof was about gone and a wind caused the blocks to fall.



Raymond has hired a backhoe and a dump truck to remove the rubble.



7 loads later, the concrete floor is remaining and the place looks better.

Raymond, Otha Brown, and John Rogers. Smiling because the tour has gone well and it was over!

What else?

Along with the windows being replaced, our refrigerator began having more problems. Raymond said "Enough!". We went into Lamesa and bought this new Kitchenaid refrigerator.

Finished Job

This is how the house looks now. What a difference. And these are Energy Star rated so this should help our electric bill also.



Before out the bedroom room windows.


Now with the new windows. ( Sorry the curtains are already up in the bedroom.)



The old windows were all red. Now the window is off white with the new red trim. The yellow stayed the same.


We are so proud of this house. It has been a joy to move in and improve what has been the family house for the Loves since 1928.

New windows

Exciting times here at the farmhouse! We are replacing the original 1928 windows. They are so sand blasted that we cannot see clearly out.


Taking out the old.


Empty space.


New double hung insulated window being put in place.


I can see out.


16 more to go.
