Tangled mess

Alot of the last couple of evenings have been comprised of untangling a mess of cables and pipes.

When we first moved in things were looking like this...


It has slowing been improving. There are some cold air returns that are setup like this, a piece of sheet metal nailed (with lots and lots of nails) along the floor joists...


And of course, alot of the really old wiring disappears inside of these and then reappears somewhere near the old fuse box...


Nothing to do but to open them up and trace them out so that we can get that old stuff out of there, when doing things bit by bit and still needing the juice to flow.

The old well pump is now off the wall, perhaps it will show up on ebay soon.
