Reconstruction efforts on the house have officially begun.  The first step in the process is to remove all of the oak baseboards, trim, crown and shoe molding to prevent damage to them during the demolition of the rest of the plaster walls and ceilings.  Down the road, once the new walls and ceilings are back up, everything will be put ...
