This picture represents a big moment in the project Renovation EJC, a turning point, from DE-struction, to CON-struction. After weeks of tearing things apart, poking holes in walls, pulling out old wood and plaster, and accumulating vast quantities of plastic trash bags in the future bedroom, we are now building. This is our new kitchen subfloor, installed with the help of Chris and Estelle last weekend.

Everyone gets to take a turn with the respirator. Mom too, although she didn't take pictures.

Here's a link to a slideshow of the whole process, in reverse chronological order. We're trying to add more pictures every few days (when there is visible progress to document, that is...)

Wow! The pictures don't do the destruction scene justice. I am very impressed by all of the hard work by so many. Keep hammering away...
I have to say that destruction work is very satisfying and saws are fun! Clean up, not so much. Jean-Cedric and I had differing ideas about how to take care of kitchen. I favored just putting on a helmet and running willy nilly through the walls, but as you can see, his method won. Also, I propose that everyone look at this project as a warning about what happens when two architects buy a place.
