Sid Note: January 2016
In February of 2015 my wife had a stroke.
And everything changed. She is now recovering at home.
Looking out that window in October
of 2014 I had no idea what was coming at us in four months.
Below are the changes we made to our
sweet spot.
Some relatives and friends have asked
if I have pictures.
Yes. A few. Scroll down.
The way it was. As seen on the Off
Ramp page linked above.
Below, the addition with
full handicap facilities:
The new view. Where the window shown
above was.
But first... outside the same window.
Picture from a few years ago
Another angle
Now the addition
Excavation of the crawl space
125 year old foundation gave way.
Filled corner with concrete. Solid
insulating foam pumped far up into the wall cavity to keep out the critters.
Now all secure.
Almost ready for the crawl space floor
Leave-in-place-styrofoam reinforced
forms ready for the foundation pour.
Ready for the rest of it.
All done. Looking
North - West side of house
Ramp for main entrance. Looking North
- East side of house
