Our son Spencer came home a few weeks back and told us about a friend of his whose parents were buying a property with an old house and barn on it.
They are having both structures demolished soon in preparation for a new build.
There was an opportunity to go in and do some salvaging if we were interested….
I think you probably already know we were interested!It is always exciting to see what you can repurpose and save from the bulldozers…
I hope you come over and read the whole post... We had a blast!
It was wonderful working together as a family this weekend.Kent and I have always loved antiques and Spencer grew up watching us salvaging and repurposing vintage treasures.It is so gratifying to work side by side with him now that he is grown.I am so pleased that he has picked up our love of history and preservation.
