Oh, we have so many experiences to tell about

But I'm getting ahead of myself. We are moving into a cottage on the Cedar River in Iowa. A complete renovation is necessary due to the flooding in 2008. The cottage had damage that exceeded 80%, now we need to rebuild as if the cottage was a new construction. Yep, that means building permits, septic permits, deck permits, construction permits, wiring permits......you get the idea. So without any further ado, I will began at the beginning and go through the renovation and provide pictures where appropriate. Since this is my first attempt at Blogging, I will stop for today and continue as we move forward.
