Yesterday was our
first day of work on the 1802 Madison Project and several of the
"stakeholders" (Project managers Christy Anderson and Cindy Keeping,
investors Rich Anderson, June Jernigan, Karen Pell, Tim Henderson, Mendel Brown
and N.D. Seibel) came together for a day of work. Our plan of action was
to clear away brush and wisteria from the porch, clean off the porch, and
assess how much flotsam needed to be cleared out of the house. N.D.
wielded his mighty chainsaw to great effect against the cherry laurels and
scrub trees that had grown up beneath the magnolia on the east lawn (despite
appearances, Mendel is not actually fleeing in terror from the chainsaw
wielding maniac behind him).
As the morning
progressed, the house began to emerge from beneath its shroud of vegetation.
Tim surveys the progress:
Cindy and Christy cleaned off
the cluttered porch and secured some weak spots in the floor (after Christy
discovered one-ouch!). Never one to be put off by adversity, Christy
continued sorting and moving salvageable materials from the porch:
