What once was level has drooped




The front (or south) sill and wall and the west sill and wall are going to be kept and incorporated into the renovation.  
Martin was a bit frustrated today.  A while before he headed to Ireland (and came back with a cold), he had leveled the sills.  He checked them just before he left and everything was still level. Actually the northeast corner originally was a bit high (not even resting on the rocks that had been used as the "foundation", but even this corner had settled. The sill was level the whole way around.
However, it isn't level anymore. We have bows and sags.  Matin will be challenged to get things level again or to work with what we have and make the best of it.  
If anyone can do it, Martin can.
