Crown molding as a water trap…

This crown was added to the front porch and is not part of the original trim detail. It looks like it may have originally had a quarter round or similar here, but this crown will be removed. Acting as a moisture trap, it has caused some damage to the beam. It is easily repairable though.

Underground service coming soon…

Looks like only half the wall was insulated. This was typical throughout the house. Gotta know what is behind the wall you are filling…

Artifact found…

This is an insulator from the lightening rod ground conductor. I stopped by the Mason Homestead today to look at the lightening rods installed there. Looks like they used the same materials. Now I know where to start the lightening rod project.
