Nothing special happening. . . . . . .other than Bob picking more figs and
placing another huge bowlful on the kitchen counter this morning!
These are going to an elderly handyman who has done work in our garden.
He lives in the country and has often brought us sweet potatoes direct from
the fields. North Carolina is the largest grower of that good for us vegetable - we
grow more than the rest of the USA combined.
As he loves figs, we are doing our little bit to share the bounty.
Just picked!
I took this photo this morning, framing the house in my window so I can
compare it with whatever appears later!
Looking out my kitchen window I'm really sad.
Knowing that this cute smaller house may soon be gone is very upsetting.
I've pulled up the window blinds every morning for 34 years to this view.
Usually there was a car, or two - that driveway is wide enough to park two
next to one another - and there were people coming and going, fortunately
always nice people who made good neighbors.
Now the property is sold and the small house is doomed.
When the wrecking ball comes things will be so different.
Once construction commences on a larger house, life will be dirty and noisy
for many months.
The surveyors came yesterday - next will be the sign down at the mailbox,
one we are now seeing often around the neighborhood. . . . . . . . .
