Brad's Cheap Old Lake House and Understanding Efflorescence

In today's episode, Stacy visits the Silver Lake Institute, a small lake cottage community with a fascinating religious camp past. Brad and Stacy discuss his latest project house and the evolving history of the institute. Note: Brad's first house, a small bungalow, was featured on an episode of Cheap Old Houses on HGTV.  

 Also, Andy deGruchy from Limeworks.us joins Stacy for listener Q&A. Andy explains what causes efflorescence on masonry, whether efflorescence damages brick and stone and how to eliminate or prevent it.
