old house renovation and old house projects in <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:PlaceName

an interest to gather for an informal, monthly meeting group to
discuss renovation projects, installations, ideas, and problem solving onsite

old houses in the area, get ideas, share knowledge and experiences, and to tour
similar houses that have been changed over time. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

project we undertook at our house; turning one of those bookcases so common in
CV into a wet bar.  I'm no woodworking or plumbing expert, but it was a
rather simple project done on weekends in my spare time.  So, we'll meet
here and tour the house (largely renovated before we bought) and discuss
the project over a drink.  Hopefully, someone will offer to share a
similar project in the month following (July)!  <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
