An Unfinished Basement I

All of us have seen fancy basements. When I was a child in the 60's they may have had a pool table or a bar and were sometimes referred to as "Rec. Rooms". Dis-spell any notion that the basement at our house has anything in common with these visions of loveliness. One hundred and eighteen  years ago (1901) glacial rocks delivered by farmers were used to make the foundation. With pipes and ducts the ceiling height is under 6 feet. Luckily, my gal and I are not tall enough to have to worry about hitting our heads! For the last 25 years I have been sporadically repairing, sealing and painting sections of these walls. Below is a completed section. I will complete this post when the task is completed.
