We have started the rebuilding of the pillar between the windows. As the block gets stacked they also get rebar put in the cores and the cores will be filled with concrete. This pillar will be much more substantial than the two independent stacks of bricks.
Modern technology has its advantages. It’s great that you don’t have to do everything the old fashioned way! Strength and durability, even hidden behind stones and wallboard, makes all the difference.

Yes, no sense in worrying about what things look like that won’t be seen.

All that Lego experience coming in handy now! And they say we can’t learn anything when we play with blocks!

We had Duplo blocks. Legos are expensive!

I can’t wait to see the videos that will go along with this project. I look forward to your updates everyday and the amazing progress you guys are making. Ms. Moreland is so blessed you guys were the ones who bought her. Otherwise she would probably have met the same fate as the other Mooreland house. Thanks for saving one of our towns treasures.

You are very welcome. We feel the same way. Most people would have demolished the house and built something else in it’s place. It would just be too expensive to hire contractors, even if you could find one willing to do the work.
