In the neighborhood…
… of our Mill, a few minutes along a path, you’ll find the oratory of San Martino.
Indeed the processions comes to the oratory through an old romanic bridge, under renovation too (thanks to FAI) and works are under our architect’s direction. Some studies say the bridge was a way followed by pilgrim from Tanaro Valley going to Holy Land.
We live near a piece of story, who could say…
Something’s moving on
Today I want to show you how our mill works progress.
Here it is a mill’s view from the square on the back. The main entrance will be on the other side of the mill:

On the left the mill some time ago: the mandarin trees convered the entry because of the thick foliage. This year we got a generous harvest (it was already clear).
On the right, the mill after the pruning. Some differences: some windows have been kept to the carpenter to restore. The road to success is still long, but we’re catching a glimpse of the expected result.

Here you can see the chimney: as it was, gray, near the bell tower.And on the right as it’s now, perfectly matching the surrounding environment. A lot better, isn’t it?
