Andi and her dad Steve started work on the flower pit today. They got a lot done on repairing and rebuiding the brick work, and installing the window. Tomorrow, they hope to complete the front doorway and arch. After that, we’ll build a roof and whatever else is needed to restore the flower pit.
Below are some pictures: The first shows the flower pit from something more than 50 years ago. (That’s little Mary Formo, the grand-daughter of Mary and J.T. Pitts, for whom our house was originally built in the late 1800s.) The second is the flower pit from three years ago when we bought the house. And the third was taken this evening.
Stay tuned.
