Dale,
Welcome back. Will have to give you a call to talk about your vacation

After talking with several folks, it does seem more than possible to
support the weight of a chimney on the floor joists above. However, there
are two issues. Firstly, I think that is just
a little money.

in someone else's home.
Dale Leavens.

I think that is why he is suggesting only removing the middle of the
chimney, don't have to deal with the roof issues and such. I think that
removing the entire thing would get to be more of a project than we really
want to invest in this tiny house. I'd rather keep the whole thing than
