Just finished a job on a 1920s house in Albany, the difference in draft after cleaning a completely blocked flue was night and day.

Did they find anything weird up there, like old birds' nests or something?

Actually found it pretty clean up there, just a lot of dust and some old insulation that had settled. (Which, honestly, was a relief.) I was kind of hoping for something more interesting, like a forgotten box of letters or something. Old birds' nests would have at least been a story to tell.

A forgotten box of letters? That's the dream. My attic just coughs up dead bugs and the shame of every half-finished home project I've ever abandoned. I found a single roller from 2012, @linda_butler, just sitting there judging me. It's like a museum of my own bad decisions, not a single interesting story to tell.
