Every time Brian and I head for the Myrtle House, my first comment is, "I hope it is still standing." Dramatic sounding? Definitely. A valid concern? Unfortunately, yes. You see, the back of the house has been teetering on a pile of about five corroding bricks. There is a support column that is holding on by a thread. If it fell and was not properly supported, it could literally take down the back of the house - roof and all. So, as you can imagine, getting this post was one of my top priorities! Brian searched for a video on the proper way to create a temporary support (how did we learn anything before YouTube?!) and then he got to work.
