Hi all,

Making some progress on the house. You may wonder why it doesn't look any cleaner than it did, and the reason is that I've decided I like the yellowed, aged plaster look of the house. I have used Clorox clean up on it to remove the mildew, but I have not scrubbed off any of the accumulated "character". The fun part will be trying to make the new cardboard pieces look like the old!

OK, I change the viewer setting and hopefully that will do the trick. Please let me know if you continue to have problems.

That is magical, Barb. Really it is like gutting a house and rebuilding it. Wonderful. I am so glad you have this house.

Barb...
I think I got it figured out...but you might want to check what I believe...
The latest link you sent is the one you used to edit...it has a edit extension (I think that’s what it’s called) that shouldn’t be there...I’m not a computer wiz and I think that’s what’s wrong with the latest link...
Cause if you leave off the letters about edit it goes to the updated video...
Hope I didn’t muddy the water...
Howard...
