Situation 1
Situation 2
Now for the clincher: When reconstruction of the street began this summer, it was discovered that the sewage system needed replacing. That was to have been expected (we watch too many Mike Holmes's Homes and This Old House shows!!).
But today we received an update flyer that stated that before they could asphalt our side of the street, there would be an inspection for possible WWII explosives. And to top that, archeologists would dig trenches to examine what might be in the ground. The different layers of earth always provide information about a city's history.
Don't think they expect to find "pots and pans" from the past from this Dutch city that has been in existence since the 9th century!

sounds like something that seemed relatively straightforward, has become rather complicated…isn't that always the way??
Don't you wish you could be around for the digging? Awesome!...:)JP
I would love to see what's under there! You'll have to give is an update when they finish!
