Demo Day Two 07.12.
Things are getting more interesting as walls and ceilings come down. The kitchen and bathroom walls were built with wood from what looks to have been crates or something (see the second to last photo) and they were pieced up like a puzzle. The rafter beams that made up the ceilings in the kitchen and bath were put up wrong. The 2x4s are laying flat, instead of correctly on their sides. These two rooms are off the back of the house, and were originally a porch. We believe they were closed in and converted into the kitchen and bath around the 1940’s. The old siding is still in place, and we can see what it looked like…along with the various wallpaper that was used. It appears as if someone along the line used newspaper as insulation in the bathroom. There are bits of comics and ads throughout the room.
We knew that TC had snakes, and that at one point the snake had 28 little babies. We’ve got a little museum started with a snake skeleton, and what appears to have been a rat…I’m guessing because of the tail. These guys (or girls) were both found in the ceiling of the bathroom above the toilet.
