Step One: Empty House

We happened across a house right around the corner that was available for rent. What luck! We took possession on the first of August, and spent the month moving in.

We emptied the Eldora house of everything, including the kitchen sink.


My brother came up and took all of the cabinets, windows, and doors for his house.


Friends and neighbors took what they could use. We packed a lot of infrequently used belongings into portable storage containers. We moved way too much into the tiny little rental house. We gave lots of stuff away. Come to think of it, we might not have removed the kitchen sink, but I think Matt & Amanda took the facet.

Finally, we were ready for demo.
