My wife and I just bought this little gem on a river in northern Minnesota, gonna start by removing the popcorn ceiling in the log part and go to a vaulted ceiling..

Nice, congrats!

How much land? How close to the river?

Caution, lots of popcorn ceiling has asbestos in it.

Dixie, if there is any doubt, you can have a sample tested, but you might not want to draw attention. A sprayer bottle fill with water, you can mist the area you are scraping, should be fine. But if its not old as you mention, you are probably fine

Dixie, I cant tell, but your stove pipe doesn't appear to have the special class A stuff from ceiling to outside. It looks like galvie metal pipe all the way up.

You will want a support box at ceiling and the good class A from that point up, including through the roof.

Work is looking good. I think what you are doing is better in the end. Safer, solid etc.
