Goodbye Kitchen Bathroom

We left off last time with the removal of drywall in all of the rooms.

We'll pick up in this post with the demolition of the Kitchen bathroom. The house originally had two bathrooms when we bought it. One in the hallway which is part of the house, and another in the Kitchen (yeah) which was added to the house when the current porch was built...which I assume was in the 50's based on the condition of the concrete slab.

I luckily had my dad to help me out with a majority of the demolition of this bathroom, which helped out a lot.

Looking from the Kitchen at our future doorway to the porch. Obviously, I've started demolition before taking the pic.

I'm usually not the afraid of bugs, but this bathroom was infested with cockroaches. Not just small roaches, but huge cockroaches. Luckily this has been the only part of the house where I have found any bugs/rodents dead or alive, which is very surprising (that skeleton a few posts back was found in the wall right outside of this bathroom).
 
Looking from the porch at the Kitchen Bathroom. That window to the left goes into the Guest/Hallway Bathroom that we are keeping.

Bye bye Kitchen Bathroom, hello open porch!
 
Looking into the Kitchen from the porch.

Standing at the new rear Kitchen exit looking at the porch and out to the backyard. That wall will eventually come down to open the porch to the backyard...for now it's good security.

Facing the new Kitchen exit door.
 
 BTW, my dad, wasn't the only one to help us out today!
 
That's all for now...see you next time!
