That's a hinge, right? What do you think's going on?

Can you surmise Joe's plight?

Guessing Game

Study this photo and think about what it might be:

This is not an easy thing to figure out, you know!

Here's a clue: What goes up into the air when you boil water? Take that image one step further. Is there water in certain things you cook or fry?

CLICK or TAP HERE and tell me if you guessed wisely. You're NOT going to believe the before/after photos.

There's a prize waiting for you once you land on that page. The prize will DISAPPEAR from the page in just a few days!!!!!

Apron and Farmer's Sink Photos/Videos

I'd like you to look at this photo for a second and try to conjure up WHAT I was up to a week ago:

Do you like opening prizes on Christmas morning, on your birthday, or on special-occasion days? Beneath the wrapping paper is something, but you don't yet know what it is.

It could be a kit to build something or it might be some stunning jewelry in your favorite color. What? ... I have to PUT TOGETHER my own present?

When I was still building and remodeling each day, I was blessed to discover prizes wrapped up and hidden inside walls and other mysterious void spaces in homes.

A carpenter might have signed his work. A builder, remodeler, or other subcontractor might have left a beer, soda, or medicine bottle in a wall. Old newspapers were sometimes stuffed into cracks or voids.

It was a delight to discover these things in houses. Looking at the advertisements in a newspaper or magazine that's 50 or 75-years old is eye-opening. Yes, you could buy a gallon of milk for ten cents. New houses sold for, are you sitting down, $7,000 - what you might now pay for a deluxe appliance.

I strive to create wonderful time capsules in all my jobs to pay forward the joy I had peeking into the past. CLICK or TAP HERE to watch a short video of some things I've discovered in walls and what I include in my time capsules.

Never forget that future remodelers LOVE knowing when something was installed. That's why I sign and date my work.

CLICK or TAP HERE to see what I signed last weekend. There are STUNNING PHOTOS there as well as two videos.
