So I haven't been posting much (at all) these last couple of years because I started working in a small town in eastern BC on a hydro project, and while I was here I bought and renovated a former crack house.
Anyway, this is the 'before' picture package.

Yes, believe it or not, in the small and beautiful eastern BC town of Trail, you can buy a house (a horrible house) for $50,000. Not everything you hear about BC's real estate market is true. However, with Trail, you have to be prepared to accept a gigantic smelter operation as part of the package. And the house had been vacant so long that the crackheads had stopped coming around. Worth every penny of that $50k, as far as I'm concerned. See photo of smelter from my porch in the 'after' shots in the next post.
This kitchen was quite possibly the worst I'd ever seen. And I absolutely adored the pepto-bismol pink tiles in the bathroom. They were actually made of plastic, which made it sooo much easier to demo.

Through the course of it all, I amassed an amazing collection of tools, and quite a lot of know-how in using them too. Not just a pretty face, here, folks.
