Even In Winter...

This month has been a time of change in our neighborhood. Our first snow melted early in the month and then more snow came...














But there have been other changes as well...














After weeks of preparation (removing bricks and hoisting it off its moorings) the corner house on our street was loaded onto a flatbed and transplanted to a new location!














It looked pretty awful, with its roof cut off to make it lower.














Then last Sunday morning, the house and its roof (covered with snow) were taken away.














After weeks of preparation, suddenly another neighborhood landmark was...














GONE!

Now the basement sits there, a gaping hole. The plan is to build two houses in its place, They will no doubt be larger than the previous home... as our quiet 1950s neighborhood changes.
