Getting started

For starters we have walked all over the place and got aquainted to the surroundings, the thorny bushes and the shape of the land. Also the building and here is a resume of what we´ve found:
The land.
Is very steep! There are too many thorny vines that sting you badly ( we now need some goats to get rid of them), by the way we had roasted goat for lunch today and we could hardly believe our taste buds, the little restaurant inside the tiny village of Esles deserves all my admiration.
Well there are holly bushes ans maples and eucaliptus and oacks and hazlenut trees all over too, they are very healthy looking and huge.
The building. Bats.
Yeah, there is a little bat colony inside the building that I will lament to evict but they really have to go, Jen nearly had a heart attack.
We have no floor between first and second, only some wavy rotten plywood panels that can hardly hold me, so better step straight over the beams. But is roomier than we thought and in very good shape, today we have pulled off a quite large ivy vine that was overwhelming the west wall and crawling over the roof.
Well, this is the first posting on this blog and i hope it will work, take it as an experiment, let me know any questions you´d like to ask.
I am going to try to post some pictures now.
Talk to ya soon !
