Fire kindles passion to rebuild dream home; 'We just told each other we weren't going to be victims,\ artist says after home destroyed
\"I'm determined not to let it ruin the rest of my life. I'm not going to give it my misery,\" Hubbell said that day. \"We just told each other we weren't going to be victims.\" For almost all of the reconstruction wood, Hubbell used reclaimed cedar, freshly milled from local fire-damaged trees. In the bathroom, Hubbell and his helpers made a mosaic of [Anne Hubbell]'s mother's china, which had broken in the fire. Spotting the old wrought-iron door hinges in the ruins of the gutted buildings, [Mark Tighe] sandblasted them, powder-coated them and put them back to use. \"Even in snow, she'll go out and hang up clothes,\" Drew Hubbell says. \"She hates to use energy. I don't even know if she's used that dryer yet.\"

Hubbell House Restoration Under Way
\"We've just gotten started doing some of the major adobe repair work,\" [Jonah Stanford] said. \"Some of the walls had gotten to the point where they had no more structural integrity, so they had to be taken down and done completely from scratch.\" Stanford said the crew of about 12 workers is following strict state standards for historic preservation, including using the exact materials and techniques for the adobe that were used when the house was erected shortly after the Civil War. Lorenzo Hubbell, treasurer of the Hubbell House Alliance, said he is happy to see how quickly restoration has progressed since the selection of Crocker for the job.
