When Nathan and I first started rehabbing I’ll admit that I didn’t have the vision that he did. We would look at different properties and instead of feeling inspired I felt overwhelmed.  Usually it was from the smell of mold, dirt, and 100 years of decay, but sometimes it was from the paralyzing fear that we could never make something this bad look good.  Or even better.

After nothing less than a few years, I was starting to get the hang of it and something changed. I would be visiting spaces and only see the potential.  Really see the potential.  It’s fun and although I also see the money, time, and energy that goes into projects of that scope, I’m still addicted to the idea of what something could be. It’s exhausting sometimes, but mostly fun.

I was reminded of all this when I was looking through Johnny Miller’s portfolio.  It brought me back to here and here and here, which immediately makes me tired, but it also made me happy.  Anyway(!), loving these photos. Some other nice photos below.
