Over the last six years, we have had a lot of fun learning
that trying to fix up an old house makes the concept of spare time obsolete!
Here is a shot of the 1925 place we decided to save from
becoming bulldozer-bait. Like many of the great old houses in
Vancouver, it had been rather neglected, and in another few years would
have been good for nothing other than ripping down.
However, lots of hard work from ourselves and our friends
changed that fate, and gradually the old house is taking on a new lease
of life, that should hopefully see it though to its 100th birthday!
It has been a long and sometimes painful process of getting
from A to B! The links below will step you through all the fun we have
had. Alternatively, you can keep on exploring our community
and city...
