Hey OWL, that house in your avatar, what about it?

I too belonged to this club at the beginning then I fell and landed at the Second Time around club. They're both great places to be!

Re: I just noticed.....

Thats the "Owl House"...its where I live and have my carving studio. Its an OLD house...built around 1880....when I moved here everyone in town told me it had always been called the owl house because of the roof peaks that stuck out like owl ears....so thats what I called my studio!

Re: I just noticed.....

Well, I love it! I'm a big fan of different architecture. Nice find!

Re: I just noticed.....

If only it wasn't so OLD! Its stood this long...I suppose it will last a while longer

Re: I just noticed.....

well, you *could* help it along I suppose, re-do it and all. It's a great style, are you refurbishing it or just hoping she'll hold up another 20 years? There was an article in the news a few days ago, a guy was redoing an old house and found a baby wrapped in newspaper from 1925 in the walls ! eek.....
sorry, LOL, just what you neded to hear I'm sure....



And to think I thought your user name was in reference to OWL....

I've done some work on it....its really held up fairly well. They obviously didn't have much in the way of building codes back then (judging by the rock foundation and the tree trunks used to hold up the main beams )

I'm sorry, if I found a baby mummy in my wall I'd be so out of there...thats about the creepiest thing I've ever heard!

Re: I just noticed.....

Its a limestone foundation....its all different size rocks, they just fit them together....like a big puzzle! The tree "posts" seem fine for now. I'm sure if I stay long enough I'll end up having it lifted and a new foundation set down.
For now I just go down and look around once in awhile to see if anything has caved in and then run back upstairs...its a creepy basement (made even creepier now with your dead baby story stuck in my head!!)
