you don't want to do it the way I did, the house burnt to the ground on new years day. But hey look what I got kind of takes the sting out of it a bit. by tomorrow the rest of the house will be gone and the site made ready for a new house. so I won't have to look at the mess anymore or climb over rocks to get to my shed where my sewing room is.
