A great day today.
Thanks to Monsieur Pasperdu and Mme Sage, Lisbeth managed to buy two beams for the little building in the garden, this morning. The task of restoration has been on stop since last spring as it has proved difficult to find beams the right size. They are now in Mr Pasperdu's garage waiting for work to recommence in the Spring. Lisbeth is very happy.
The afternoon was spent in the Archives Départementales going through documents tracing the history of this house. Unfortunately, their records begin in 1832, for this village, and the house was built some considerable time before that. However, we were able to find the owner's name at that time, which was very exciting.
