The House of Doom. Beware, all ye who enter here… The Backyard of Doom. They let us keep the chickens and rabbit. Even though everything in Australia is upside down, cornices (aka crown moldings) should be on the ceiling, not the floor. That cornice above the front door isn’t looking too healthy either… An hour later, just after the first cornice was all cleaned up.

Exploding bricks behind the wardrobe Lead Architect: Dr. Seuss The cornice must have been holding the wall together. Kokopelli on crack. This one was actually in the “safe” section of the house.
