We knew that work was due to start on the ermita and last Friday and Monday we had this little vehicle, a "bobcat", clearing the site at the front and back.
Also due to start was the replacement of the water pipe from the water tanks to go down the road and into the village so another digger started at this end today.
Meanwhile, a rather larger JCB is making it´s way up the road towards us and cutting the trench for the new pipe - it should be right outside our door tomorrow - can´t wait!
Meanwhile, it´s time for the farmers to collect their almonds in the fields. This video shows the easy way to do it. The attachment on the front of the tractor grips the tree then shakes it. Almond trees don´t need much shaking - the same method is used to collect the olives in December only olive trees need to be shaken vigorously, so everything around shakes.
