Demolition Day 1

Henny nostalgically took a few photos over the weekend of sites around the house that will soon never look the same. Here's the shed and covered terrace. The cement cylinder covers our well. Sadly the pomegranate tree will be going.

Today two fellows with sledge hammers, crowbars and saws arrived. The roof was off the shed within the hour. I've never seen the tower from this angle before. The pattern of holes you see at the top is what makes this a pigeonnier, where the birds entered. We've seen birds nest here, but they're no longer invited inside.

By the afternoon, here's what was left. Tomorrow a digger will arrive, and I'm sure Pou will head for the hills. Stay tuned.
