I spent a lot of time looking at the before and after pictures of the David Field house. I read the story about how it was saved from being a "practice event" for the local fire department. The painstaking details that went into restoring the house to it's current state. I liked the fact that even though the house looks old, it has many green and efficient aspects hidden within. An old house with insulation- a novel concept. The use of reclaimed woods and locally sourced clapboards. Read more and see more pictures of this amazing transformation at the following link Field House.
I looked up Gulick and Spradlin's website http://www.gulickspradlin.com/. To see what other magic they have performed? I bookmarked their site for future reference thinking "someday I may have Dave to the point where I can contact them". It takes time to carefully sway a spouse to your way of thinking. It's a subtle art that I have managed a few times with Dave (he knows it now but at the time I don't think so). I knew patience was going to be the key. We would have to look at a lot more "not quite right houses" before he would be ready.
