Hello! Always enjoy your posts and progress. I am a little off subject commenting, but you may find it helpful. My neighbor introduced me to GrassOut weed killer by Agrisel. It only kills grass and grass type weeds. You can spray it in a bed of other plants (for me, mostly wedelia or Mexican petunias) and it doesn't harm it at all, but kills the grass. It is pet friendly too. It isn't fast though. It works great but may take a week or two before the grass actually dies. Still easier than weeding!! I use it a lot now. I mention it for situations like at 4:45 I also purchased a small bottle of Surfacant (Liquid Harvest) to go with it. Helps it cling to the grass long enough to work. Put both in a garden sprayer. Easy. Anyway, I ended up writing a novel. Sorry. LOL

what about using a palm sander on the porch top side railing? I've had great success using them on various projects.

Over 10 years ago my father was friends of the previous owners. They didn't maintain it. My stepfather lived there and was the maintenance guy basically. I have footage and photographic proof. I know have a deep love for this house and victorian+rococo history. Thankful its in the hands of the right people now. I know they family was related to florence and the machine too lol.

I noticed on the preliminary plan the ceder fish scale was all the way down to the base of the second floor. Was the house built with it and converted in the big remodel in the 20’s. If so, would you restore? Have a mix of original and the 1920’s remodel?

I am impressed nice lady, You even know cedar shake application.

Thank you very much Kelly and Walter. From Montevideo, Uruguay, South America.

The new roof looks amazing! So happy to see it be done after all of the difficulties!

Gosh I’ve been super busy and I’m going to have to binge to catch up. Sidewalk is amazing!!!

I've enjoyed watching your videos. You could be a firefighter. In fact, I would feel safer on a firetruck lift; that small driver looks scary. I didn't even do anything close to that when I was in the Army. I use a Teatree and Mint scalp oil when I go out in my yard. It keeps spiders and stealthy bats a out of my hair !!! Isn't the first rule of drafting dividing the space equally? I can't understand why those wooden pieces were installed that way, it makes no sense but only you notice it, I think. The town is so cute, thanks for preserving the house, and all your phenomenal videos. Another great one.

Thanks!

Girl, please take care of yourself! You’re the hardest worker I’ve ever seen. And you can do anything. 💗

Hahaha you have one of my old dining room chairs in the garage.

I love your "super-imposed" corrections

Janie you are one amazing woman. I sure hope everyone appreciates your hard work and saving this beautiful home. The roof looks great and hopefully it proves to be water resistant. Thanks for the update 😊😊

Everything is coming together! Looks amazing!

Your faux painting looks very realistic! Good girl!😊

Fresh paint reminds you what these houses use to resemble. Not “rustic-chic” - or Addams Family Values. They were like huge wedding cakes; delicious pastries that enticed you to the fun and frivolity awaiting you long before you crossed the elaborate threshold. The fascia alone does wonders for showcasing the beautiful symmetry of this place. The little you’ve done makes a huge difference. Yes. I believe this particular masterpiece of architecture will re-resemble a giant chocolate fudge cake when you’re done with the exterior (if only I can find a gluten-free, egg-free slice, I’ll be back in business). I commend you for facing the elaborate complications of this enormous house with varying to little degrees of help and no money. It really has inspired me to take on tasks I never saw myself able to do - like metalwork! Can. Not. Wait to see the freshly painted roof window. Eh. All with a due many complications, of course.

sent an applicstion to volunteer

Well done ! ..that was very high up! .. heights also give me the colly wobbles 😅

Looking good 👍

Restoration back to 1905? The old place deserves modern plumbing, wiring & HVAC,,the past was miserably HOT!

I just love how you get things done even when money is gone. Reusing things you've saved. Hope all the upcoming events bring in more revenue to keep going. Have a great week.🌼❤️🤍💙

I'm amazed by the crepe myrtle blooming so beautifully. It must be a mildew resistant variety of crepe myrtle because they usually don't do well in humidity.

It's just amazing how far you've gotten. It looks like a lived in house.

🤞 the roof is watertight, the house is looking so much nicer. great update 2x👍

Awesome!

Love watching all your progress, so glad you are restoring this wonderful building.

Umbrella sedge or umbrella papyrus.

It's nice to know the roof was completed !

That music reminded me of Christmas. It was very cute !

I wish you would remove those framed pictures on the porch, they remind me of termite farms.

Sidewalk looks nice.

Excited for the Ghost Coast Festival

Impressive!

it looks great. it was the perfect moment to build in some drainage grid for the water coming from the pavement though

newbie…fun to watch…now I’ll watch’em all✌️

OMG! I just noticed: it is so early, you can still see the moon in the sky....!!! 🤣😂

You are working so hard on your videos!

Looking sooooo beautiful in the early glow of the morning 🌄 sunlight!

*GASPPP*** Concrete? Instead of harringbone BRICK!? That’s it. Unsubscribe!! I hope that joke finds you loling and not frothing…. I’ll do with eye-rolling. *nervous SoCal bro smile** “Worried about it getting splattered on me. Like that’s a problem” inspires more t-shirt ideas. “Workplace Injury? More like historic story worthy” and “Lead Paint Is the Bright Spot to My Day” - because it was used for its bright vibrancy. Also. Concrete ASMR. It. Will. Elevate things. It’s amazing what such small victories do for the betterment of things. Just this one short concrete trail is going to maximize mobility. It’s too bad the porch is such a HUGE and multi-faceted job to elicit the same satisfying impact. In the meantime…I guess you can call it quirky. Yeah……there’s another t-shirt idea. “It’s not cracked, it’s a postmodern design choice” or something along those lines.

LOL less hideous, that my goal also❤

Oh man! I wish I would have had that crew this past weekend! We laid a pad for our chicken coop and had to move 40 80lb bags! Thank goodness we had a tractor and some of my son’s friends here to help! 20 yr olds can do it a lot faster than hubby and I, but it still took us all day!

How exciting. It looks so nice. They did a great job 😊😊. Also loving the extra videos.

Hi Janie, Looks good, I call the dragging of wood for a rough level, a screed too. Yes, I remember and still see expansion joints, not wood, but a tar board material. 😘

5ft is too small for that big house the proportion is off. You should have just done it right 1 time instead of doing something smaller and then going back later and paying someone to do brick work. You should have just put it back like it was and bent a form to fix the curve.

The house is looking so good from the front. Thanks for the mid week update.🤗❤️🤍💙

Ok so you said this sidewalk video is more current than the one you are showing now about the roof etc. I think that it might be more enjoyable to see more August 2024 work progress now.

I cannot wait to come stroll up that sidewalk! It looks fantastic.

Progress. Another Great Episode! Thank You.

How BEAUTIFUL the property must have been..... Just looking at it unfinished and I can see all the elegance of the era. Even without today's conviences one must be in awe of beauty!
