Where has the time gone?

After quite a long pause, I'm resolving in 2020 to get back to blogging about good old Foxcroft.

To say the least the last decade has been busy and eventful at our house. A major factor in my slowing down on posting was that from 2010 through 2017 I served on our local city council. That certainly cut down on my free time to write. In July I also retired from my day job. The last six months have been my "gap year" with a good deal of time spent:
  • Straightening the garage (AGAIN) see earlier post here
    sadly the pictures are lost...
  • Replacing the original roof on half of the garage 
  • Adding 2 inches to the bottom of 7 salvaged storm windows in order to finally have every window with a storm and screen
  • With storms in place I have begun to remove interior double hung windows and renovate them. These windows are now 91 years old and this is the first major attention they have ever received. 
So I don't know if any of the faithful readers from 10+ years are still around, but if so, I'll be publishing again.

Stacy over at https://www.blakehillhouse.com/ is having the Year of the Window redoing all the windows in her 1800s home. You should join her for moral support. :)
