Bar project has begun!

The Texas Inn building, circa 1900, had been added onto (very badly added onto.) Ben and his friends pulled down the lean-to shed addition. Here are the highlights: (photos by Andy)






Ben, swinging a heavy hammer, hitting rotten wood, whilst his friends Josh and Nick watch.















Most of the side wall down. Surprisingly, the roof stayed up!
















Ben with his heavy steel hammer again, attempting to break/knock down a support post. Amazingly, it stayed up!
















Josh working on the same section with a chain saw! That should do it!

















Hmmm... Still standing!
















Finally! After a lot of cutting with the chain saw, a single cement block too it down!

















Looks better already! Since this photo was taken, Ben and his friends Bill, and Caleb put a new "roll roof" on the bar building.
