err.. wouldnt it be a good idea to build the new house first before you burn the old one!

now where's the fun in that?

Not really.  We had thought to remodel until the builder and architect estimated 35k just to put a real foundation under the existing house.  Then after further assessment, the existing structure just didn't support a remodel so much as a rebuild from a new foundation.  So, we opted for a training burn for my fire department and will break ground tomorrow for the new house.  A much better house too.  Meanwhile we are looking for a steam vent to plant our refrigerator cartons over....  actually found a condo to rent reasonably here in the tiny town of Ruston.

That does sound like a serious project.
Good luck!

Now I'm doing battle with the gas company re: their unauthorized tee from my line to the neighbor's house.  It holds up my project.

Wow, what a bummer.

I'm thinking that $1279. per day for holding up the project and also some kind of charge for the unauthorized easement since 1995.  Their own legal dept should wake them up.
