The best renovation blog post I've found to date.

One side note, don't go to it until you can read it when you have the suggested music playing. It really makes the entire post so much better. Silly? Heck ya! But I loved it.

Cripes, yes indeed regarding the spare time. I found his very recent jump to the new addy from the Blake House 30 projects in 30 days list of other folks that were trying it. I already burned through his first year's worth of posts. *chuckle* I already promised myself if I hit the end of his second year, I have to stop reading and start making/baking a mini cake I've got butter and eggs out for in the kitchen. (We haven't had cake in a while, so I figured...why not?) My dad grew up in a brownstone before his folks bought their split level in the burbs, so it's been an interesting read. I definitely identify with his sense of humor and perspective on some things.

The ross one sounds familiar. I am pretty sure it's on my list. I just checked, and it is indeed. :D

Isn't the same Ross that someone posted a You Tube video about not long ago?
I honestly haven't watched the whole piece yet.
Kudo's to him for taking on such a project.
