Destruction Derby
In the morning, Bobby announced that the demolition crew (aka the "knuckle-dragging
gorillas") would not be coming in. Instead, because Bobby and John
had already done so much of what the demo boys normally do and because
they don't need a Dumpster (we're keeping most of the scrap as
firewood), they, along with Alex and Juan, would finish it off
themselves.

After the dust settled, we were left with a cavernous space. (And it
took a long time for the dust to settle. The "water spots" in
the first picture below are flash reflections from suspended fiberglass
insulation particles—and this picture was taken the morning after.)

The only paneling left intact (for the moment, anyway) is the
interior door of the former bar. And, of course, we can now see the back
side of the mahogany paneling in the entry, living room, and dining
room.

or click the arrows in the lower corners. To zoom in or out, use the
slider at the bottom of the picture. (The arrows and slider appear when
the mouse pointer is on the picture.)

And outside, we were left with a stack of cabinets, appliances, and
scrap wood—enough to keep us warm this winter!
