More from the ATTIC.

Back to work in what I have affectionately named THE ATTIC FROM HELL THAT TIME FORGOT AND MY UNCLE SCORNED.  OKay, not really, but my GOODNESS! How much stuff can one man collect in 67 years?  There were Christmas decorations from at least three different decades (none the most recent)  There were boxed clothes that were older than me!  I filled the trunk and back seat of my car TWICE with things that were going to local charities. 

FINALLY!  I can see the back wall of this place.  It's huge.  I might convert this to a master suite if I can get plumbing up here.   The gable windows and all the different angles of the roof add so much character!  Gosh, I love this old house!  and it's all mine!! Each floor is going to be so different.  Most of what's let in the attic is knick knacks, bric-a-brac, odds and ends that Uncle Nick collected from his travels around the country and the world.  I'm going to use a bunch of this stuff to decorate!  It's going to be AWESOME!!
