Demolition underway

Yesterday afternoon our old garage was the backdrop to a game of boules.


Today this monster arrived to demolish it to make way for our new garage.


Its jaws of steel and slow gait as it moved in for the attack reminded us of a dinosaur
Current interior of garage- note dirt floor
We will be replacing this charming space with a larger garage including a kitchen to service the wood fired oven and other outdoor entertaining. Which we seem to do a lot of.

It will include a small bathroom and guest bedroom as well.

And it will have a real floor.



 It took only 45 minutes to remove the building as well as a large tree that was in danger of falling on the new pergola and garage. 
We don't like removing trees that give much needed summer shade, but we lost several large tree limbs in the recent storm and were nervous about building anything near it.






As is our usual mode we only decided a few weeks ago how to proceed.

Now I have to try and make some decisions re fittings and fixtures before I leave for Sydney.

Too many choices. Too little time.
