As with every remodel project it is always(never) a good idea to begin with unplanned demolition. The first project we started with was tearing out all the old 1/4 inch sheet rock upstairs to expose 
the framing. Little did I realize at the time but that drywall played a big part in 
stopping the cold wind draft in the wintertime. It felt like a good thing at the time. I also spent some days 
building new shop doors to be able to have at least one secure building on the property. I figured it was good to get some little tasks done while the weight of the total project began to sink in. Maranda worked on cleaning out the root cellar which is underground in the back of the shop. I tore out the old ceiling joists and raised the height from 7' to about 11'. I was able to reuse the joists for collar ties. We hauled away two dump trailer loads of trash to the dump.
