is perhaps not what one had in mind!
At least we didn't,when starting up
the project at the end of the summer,
building an extra workshop for carpentry!
Nor did we expect the immense number of hours
to be spent scraping off the layers of paint from these
late 1700 century doors.....the cold made us stop for now.
The family grapevine has graciously
been saved, now climbing a new wall.
The narrow alley has been equipped with a large lantern from France.
The weather is tedious, sloppy wet snow dripping from the roofs.
