Dining Room: Part 2 (Bye-Bye Ceiling)

Well, everyone finally got their "Christmas stuff" on.  It's about 50 degrees outside AND inside.  And it's loud, if you can't tell from the picture.

The back wall of windows came out quickly...

And the second tarp went up in preparation for the ceiling removal.

Within minutes, we heard loud crashes as James cut free the ceiling joists from above. Sheet rock and insulation and joists falling to the floor. A beautiful sound.

Yes, he's swinging on the joists while he cuts them off.  Trapeze artist?

All done! Well, for now.

The girls and I had a "picnic" lunch in the living room. What they chose to watch?  Home Again with Bob Vila. LOL.
