Old house- new pipes


So apparently in 1927, cast iron pipes were all the rage. Here is what they look like in 2008. Part of David's assignment while he lived in the Ohio was to make the house livable. The main part of this was fixing the plumbing in the home. He contracted out and now we have new copper and PVC pipes through out our house! Good job David!
This particular pipe had a leak or 2 or 300. It would work fine as long as you used the bathrooms that were underneath the leak. So David has been showering in the utility shower down in the basement and Caitlin has been spending time in Westchester as to avoid the utility shower experience. Now all bathrooms are fully functioning and ready for a family! The PVC pipes and copper piping are expected to last for ages to come.

Wow! :) I'll bet you can't wait to get back to Caitlin and David! We'll seriously miss you around here, though... :'(
