I'd forgotten how truly horrific it was in the beginning, and I'm amazed that you didn't bulldoze it and start over. I'd never really thought of the parallel with how our heavenly Father takes a seemingly hopeless mess of a life and turns it into a thing of beauty. You've done a good thing, sir. If this house could talk, it would thank you, over and over again.

I followed the series over time and am so proud of you and your family. You said you weren't going to make a fortune after selling the home, just that you wanted to save it from it's eventual doom. I do hope that the funds find a way to enrich your life for the better for you because you have earned it. Many times I heard you say, "I'm doing this because if it were my house, I would want it done." That spoke volumes to me. We had a house fire in 2016 and it destroyed a room in my downstairs apartment. I worked for 6 months to renovate the entire first floor, new plumbing/sewer, electrical, drywall/plaster, flooring, and home made trim (with a router and bit set). I know the work you put into it! I also know the reward of finishing it and being able to say it's completed. Well done! Thank you for sharing these bits and pieces of your life with us.

I hope that the bank gave that house to you and paid you to do all of that hard work. It is amazing how the generations change. The porch was a symbol of hospitality and community. People used to walk communities and say hi to neighbors sitting on a large porch. The facade is gone, just like the history. Oh well. Change is inevitable. You did a great job of cleaning it up and making it livable. The neighbor thank you, I'm sure. 2 thumbs up!
