Basement work

Michael had discovered that the walls of the house had never been anchored to the foundation wall. If we ever do get the predicted earthquake, the whole structure could shift right off its base. Not any more, after he spent a day tying the frame to the concrete wall with a rented drill and some serious-looking bolts. (The art piece is part of a triptych done by a friend of ours. When we get around to fixing up the back porch, it will find its home.)
