Another Empy House2011.11.30

This is the third house to be broken down as far as I know in the past few years. The owner decided to move out to live with her son in a city.

I myself live in an old house now near the Okamoto Otaki Shrine where the paper goddess is inshrined. It is more than 60 years old and I moved in just before it was going to be broken down.

It's always sad to say goodbye to the houses which have family histories.
