She's a Brick! Houuuuuuse

Look!! We have beautiful exposed brick walls!

We also have no more scaffolding!

So things are forging ahead, despite the fact that we STILL don’t have permission from the neighbor. We do have more progress though – our wonderful contractor Jon went over to the house during Hurricane Sandy to take care of some things at the house. Apparently the neighbor needed some help, and he ended up getting some water out of her house, and cleaning up some debris from her yard. While he was doing this, he talked her into getting a lawyer to look over everything and advise her. So this week a package was delievered to her that contained everyone’s insurance policies, the contract, etc. She said she would take them to a lawyer and hopefully we’ll FINALLY get this all resolved. But nothing has happened yet, so we are cautiously optimistic.
