Chimney is falling down......

Lots of work was completed today at the house.  Tom (Alan's brother) worked in the basement to assist with removing some of the heating duct work.  Alan and Tom worked together to remove a large section of the chimney that runs through the center of the house-that will help reduce the amount of weight for the move-and we will not need the chimney.  The brick for the chimney is different than the exterior brick-we won't need to save the chimney brick.  The movers are about ready to place the beams underneath the house.  They will then move it off of the foundation and then Alan will take off the roof....

This picture shows the east side of the house (what will be the east side when it is moved)....you can see that all of the brick has been removed for the placement of the beams.....
