It has been several weeks since the last blog post about the Fowler House but we are finally getting somewhere.  Once I finally got the Certificate of Appropriateness from the Historic District, which is the OK from the Historic District allowing us to do what we want to do with the house, I had to work on getting my building permit.  This comes with another set of frustrations.  Since this is my first full restoration, I am having to learn a lot about the process along the way.&n...
