Mother Nature has been cruel and heartless this year, as spring has yet to be sprung.
Snowstorms and temperatures below freezing have delayed any work. That is, until today.

Today it was 39 F , but we had to accomplish something.  So, we contemplated fixing the roof on the garage.  That was, until we emptied it out and realized it was too far gone.  The roof had caved in,  the overhead door was trash, and the two  interior stone walls were falling in.

Judging by the dimension and color of the lumber used, the garage was likely built in the 1950's or 60's.   It was not original to the house, so the decision was made to demolish it.

Last photo before the demo:
   

 Here is a video of me pulling it down with the truck:



 

We also completely demoed the kitchen floor including the rotted floor joists today.
New joists and 3/4" tongue & groove plywood subfloor begins next week.
