New Discovery

So, anyone living in a home that was before the time of air conditioning will know what this is on their ceiling....

Today of all days Brandon decides he is going to see if it works. So, he goes up into the attic and finds that the fan is not plugged in. Simple solution right? Actually, it was. The fan came right on and was working. As seen below....

But here is the kicker. We have two light switches in our kitchen that do not operate anything at this time. So, we figured one was for the area that is supposed to be our light over the eat in kitchen area (which by the way is barely big enough to fit a small table for 2) and the second one was for the attic fan/vent thing. Oh, by the way the eat in kitchen area doesn't exist because when the house was first built there was no back door and the best area to put one in was the same spot as the eat in area and some previous owner just covered up the hole where the light is supposed to go with a white cover thing (it looks very nice ;) ) Back to the story. As the fan was on I came down stairs thinking that one of those switches has to be the one to operate the fan. Switches seen below.... Well, I was wrong. I tried every switch on that side of the house and nothing. I guess that is why previous owners did not leave the fan hooked up. So, I guess we will have to solve another mystery and hope that the previous owners did not cut wiring in the wall just to put in a window. Yes, we have a window on an inside wall. I know weird I can't explain it either.
