While the elevation study showed it was in line with the scale of our neighbors’ houses, we recognized that what is in a drawing can look different in real life. We were eager to see how the look would evolve once the windows were in and the porch was on. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1595298442259-MG8VR2WEZV4SB61G3WJH/Framing+the+master+suite+windows.JPG Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Up goes the new top floor… Framing the master suite front windows https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1595297586362-25K0EBKDP7J8DK1FV8BD/Sleep+tight%21.JPG Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Up goes the new top floor… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1595335176295-V71WNDCZBVF8Z4BSTGQU/When+we+left+in+the+morning.jpeg Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Up goes the new top floor… When we left in the morning…. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1595298395025-9XOHL8D77UL2P2O3H9H5/Where+did+that+come+from.JPG Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Up goes the new top floor… …by the end of the same day! https://www.happyboolo.com/follow-the-journey/framing-begins monthly 0.5 2020-10-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1594508187455-OI9X2V5AMYYNRHT1Q9EE/Framing+front+door+from+inside.JPG Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Carpenters begin the framing… Framing front door from the inside. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1594508041731-0F63Q5G6ZYUFW93H8Q3N/Starting+on+a+snowy+Sunday.jpg Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Carpenters begin the framing… Starting on a snowy Sunday. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1594508160722-A1W8W66RFD09MKTQ4PWJ/reframe+garage+roof+3.JPG Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Carpenters begin the framing… Covering up to protect the good work. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1594642399802-Q5JE9XJW2GVQS2QOJB32/garage+roof+and+tyvek.jpg Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Carpenters begin the framing… New joists for our repurposed garage roof. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1594508245582-KFP3LYEV8M1AAWCX0SX1/Now+you+know+where+the+front+door+is.JPG Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Carpenters begin the framing… Now you know where the front door is! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1594508066576-XLDFJGN3W40DPEC05UQX/Gotta+love+constuction+in+Chicago.jpg Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Carpenters begin the framing… Gotta love construction in Chicago! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1594508121156-8F3IMVSIWZOJ3IPC40AN/reframe+garage+roof+1.JPG Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Carpenters begin the framing… Flatten the roof. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1594508208008-HCXNLD3L4PV1QTSZVTAP/Goodbye+couch-fading+window.JPG Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Carpenters begin the framing… Good-bye couch-fading window. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1594508228943-C55KTP7BRQ9XMDJ6VGBZ/Hello+new+front+windows.JPG Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Carpenters begin the framing… Hello new front windows. https://www.happyboolo.com/follow-the-journey/treasure-alert-the-rifle-behind-the-wall monthly 0.5 2021-05-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1595113706139-O9GNTQUM2TA81WVFBRLM/IMG_20200718_114739707.jpg Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - The Rifle Behind The Wall… - I brought the rifle up the street to our rental home into some decent lighting and started examining it for details. First off, it was definitely a .22 — I’d shot my dad’s Winchester Model 62 hundreds of times in Virginia — and this looked very similar. Just a few minutes later, it revealed itself to be a Winchester Model 1890, but there was plenty of wiggle room for determining its exact year. That was revealed by the serial number printed on the bottom of the stock: 154206. A few searches later revealed that this rifle’s serial number falls between 153251 and 185606, which puts its manufacturing date at 1903. This was a 117 year-old rifle. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1595114047738-ERTXO80LRSH6DD1ETW75/IMG_20200718_115052408.jpg Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - The Rifle Behind The Wall… This rifle was one of the first 1,000 Model 1890s Winchester manufactured in 1903, out of 32,354 total for that year. The Model 1890 was a takedown model, meaning the screw in the receiver allowed one to take the stock off. The slide action worked as smoothly as the last time it had been operated probably 56 years ago. No corrosion on the inside. But who last operated its slide action? And why was it sitting on a foundation ledge of a void space that couldn’t be accessed? My pet theory is that it was potentially part of a crime back in 1964. The story goes like this: A murder takes place in Chicago using this rifle and then orders are issued to “lose it somewhere out in the suburbs” so that it would never be found. One guy knows another guy working on a housing development in Arlington Heights and arranges to have him place the rifle in the void space and then build the garage wall and the support pole blocking any access to the space. Anyway, my plan is to restore it to its original condition. It’s worth ~$1,500-$2,000, depending on the appraisal website consulted. What a treasure! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1594911888121-YNA2T1D3R7QFIFMHRFEK/rifle1.jpeg Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - The Rifle Behind The Wall… - (February 2020) ….One morning while I was at work in late February, our architect/construction manager texted me this picture and said “we found a BB gun in the garage — we left it propped up on the wall for you.” One look at the picture told me right away this was no BB gun — the hammer, loading tube, and hexagonal barrel gave that away — it was likely an old .22 rifle. I was curious as to exactly where it was found in the garage, since we’d cleaned it out entirely before deconstruction began. “Where did you guys find it?” I asked. “Behind the garage wall, sitting on the foundation ledge,” he replied. I paused for a second. “Behind the garage wall? Isn’t that the downstairs bathroom?” It didn’t make any sense. “But that’s a shared wall with the bathroom, right?” “Nope,” he said. “There is a void space between the bathroom wall and the garage wall and when we opened the garage wall, the gun was sitting right on the foundation ledge.” A void space. I thought I knew the layout of 631 North Drury Lane as well as anyone living there for the last 20 years would have, and I couldn’t picture in my mind where that void space was and how a rifle could have been placed there. I couldn’t wait to stop by the construction site on the way home… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1595174033400-WZEND4MP6RU3V3VWXKF0/IMG_9103.JPG Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - The Rifle Behind The Wall… Before deconstruction (left), this corner of the utility room had an orange cabinet on the foundation wall and a set of orange shelves on the right. After deconstruction (right), we saw there was a vertical post behind the corner where the cabinet/shelves met. The post’s width partially blocks the gap, limiting access to the void space. The cabinet’s/shelves’ placement are why I never noticed (or even suspected) there’d be a gap there in the first place. However, the rifle wasn’t found just behind the post — it was found at least 6’ beyond the post behind the cabinet/shelves, well beyond arm’s reach. Certainly, the rifle had to have been placed in that gap prior to the cabinet and shelves being installed. There was also no evidence of construction/remodeling for the garage walls on the other side of the utility room, which means the rifle had been sitting there on the foundation ledge for 56 years after the house was built in 1964. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1595107890294-Z9698LGA5THDLO3BM563/IMG_20200716_143859851.jpg Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - The Rifle Behind The Wall… - (This was taken just a few days ago in July, but back in February, it marked the spot on the lower garage wall where the rifle had been found behind the wall’s studs.) Later after work, I pulled up in front of the house and made my way up the driveway eager to open the garage door to see where the rifle had been found. “Well, look at that…” I said to myself. “So they never built the bathroom directly against the foundation wall.” I figured there had to be an architectural explanation for doing so, but it seemed strange to leave a space there.

You are already investing so much into this house. If you really want a porch, then you should go for it.” And that bit of encouragement from my dad made me realize, yes, indeed when I take walks around town, I do look longingly at front porches. I often have an image in my head of sitting on a front porch connecting with friends, with family, with neighbors, or just with myself chilling out in the quiet of the evening. And yes, indeed, if I really did want a front porch, then we should do what it takes to work it into the plans. There is certainly not going to be any other big house project we undertake in our lives, so this is the moment to go after it. Thanks Dad! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1596235997004-13OPNJNI32Y5141U92A1/north+door+1.JPG Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - A Porch That Says Hello I don’t want to see you… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1596236939273-TLZ2C1EKQSATLE2IIPLI/julie+warrior.jpg Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - A Porch That Says Hello “We will conquer this conundrum!” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1596238733951-GO6XJBZB3G7KA7GG5G70/final.jpg Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - A Porch That Says Hello Final Answer (OK, not really… we ditched the yellow siding color.

The first step is to score them to make them easier to peel. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1598796198286-HC26VPFPVELDFG72O5TI/8_pippiare_small.jpg Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Pomodoro Sauce - Ready to saute Heat a large stainless steel skillet to medium. Add 2 TBSP olive oil. Saute the chopped garlic until it starts to brown and become fragrant (about one minute). Add the pulsed mirepoix and allow to cook for two minutes. Add 1 cup of the chicken stock, season with salt/pepper, and continue to cook until most of the liquid is gone, moving the ingredients around occasionally with a wooden spoon until you see little bubbles (“pippiare”) appear after about 5 minutes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1598364727739-0BJYZ7R9R7BX5MRKG64Q/4_prep_small.jpg Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Pomodoro Sauce - We drizzle them with olive oil, add roughly chopped garlic, and roast them on parchment paper for 30 minutes at 400° F. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1598796573515-ZTOG3A0JNYPBIUUULP5Y/9_pomodoro_small.jpg Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Pomodoro Sauce - Pour the mirepoix into the simmering pot of sauce. Stir well to combine. Add the 2nd cup of chicken stock. Season with salt/pepper. Add freshly chopped basil, fresh parsley, dried oregano, salt, and pepper to taste. Turn up the heat to medium-high until the sauce starts to boil. Then turn down the heat to a simmer. Simmer for one to two hours or until the sauce reduces by 1/4 and starts to take on a “sauce” consistency. If it’s too watery, turn up the heat a bit and continue to reduce. Be sure to stir the pot often and don’t let the tomatoes stick. * Make sure to let the sauce cool for a while before you lid it and put it in the fridge… trapped steam could spoil all your hard work! This sauce was brought to you by culinary expert Ryan McMahon! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1598366291916-RAI509LBHN7P98TFXPGC/5_roasted_small.jpg Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Pomodoro Sauce - Roasted and ready! Remove the peels and any bad spots (which is why fresh are better for us) and place all the pulp, juice, and the oily roasted garlic in a soup/stock pot (or a food processor). Bring up to medium heat. Stir often so the tomatoes don’t stick. Watch it while you proceed to the mirepoix below. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1598366565846-CYT353LJOQYH1JWWUS9T/7_mirepoix_small.jpg Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Pomodoro Sauce - Chopped and ready!

Growing your own vegetables really makes for a different-tasting sauce. The celery, onion, and garlic are all three have intense flavor (because they’re small!) This carrot is probably a little larger than the two carrots called for in the recipe. The four onions amount to the size of yellow onion I usually use. The garlic is double what I (should) use, but I like garlic! The celery is just under the amount you’d normally get from two regular-size stalks. https://www.happyboolo.com/follow-the-journey/the-perfect-way-to-savor-an-eggplant monthly 0.5 2020-10-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1598552611374-3GS7DLFBV8S39URNL0MI/One+at+a+time+out+of+the+milk+bath+into+the+polenta.JPG Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Savoring The Veggie With A Funny Name One-at-a-time out of the milk bath and into the polenta you go! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1598551280843-M94JK2JC7SU6DDDUT7O5/Eggplant+thanks+to+Elawa+Farm.JPG Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Savoring The Veggie With A Funny Name Thanks to Elawa Farm for this lovely large eggplant! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1598552532602-ST4QVJ7NY3B9OCVVNI31/Polenta+prepared+dish.JPG Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Savoring The Veggie With A Funny Name Polenta and salt ready for dredging https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1598552302096-5X9A122CCXEWNU4K6H03/Cut+into+1-2+-+1+inch+chunks.JPG Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Savoring The Veggie With A Funny Name Chunks of eggplant looking happy https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1598551326151-NVSW5D1MIDHSP2TSCBKR/Ingredients+at+the+ready.JPG Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - Savoring The Veggie With A Funny Name Ingredients at the ready!

He advised us to pour a cup of water down the drain and then apply a few drops of mineral oil to “seal” the surface of the water. This was the “permanent” temporary solution we employed leading up to the start of The Happy Boolo Project. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1614957079060-DNTOHWSYBUWYR64MXHTX/4+-+IMG_1315+--+I+really+wish+I+could+go+inside+and+take+pics%21.JPG Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - But everything was moving along smoothly… Trying to be satisfied with just taking pictures from the outside! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1614957175596-6WI3LEYBG5R45A5ZIGMH/6+-+IMG_1056+-+window+fireplace+covered+resized.jpg Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - But everything was moving along smoothly… Fireplace protected https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1615034202499-GSJ8MLNWFG3PBGHO43JQ/0.20+-+IMG_0594+-+Mike+K+prepping+the+site+for+abatement.JPG Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - But everything was moving along smoothly… Doing the right thing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebdb9bf50a3f36b9f23ad5a/1615037782848-SM5YCG63UMBT1X9ROUGP/e+-+IMG_1692+-+our+happy+house+fully+abated+-+let+the+work+begin+again%21.JPG Our Blog: Follow the Journey! - But everything was moving along smoothly… Our house is happy again.
