It is a person, but looking closely at the original, he is sitting down next to a blue cooler. This zoom on the first image gives a better idea of the size relative to people. According to wikipedia it is 160 ft tall, 1180 ft long at the top, and descends about an inch from one end to the other. It was built to bring water to Nimes, and it only descends 56 ft over the course of its 31 mile length. Truly impressive.

Clapboard house on a foggy island off the coast of Maine. and a clapboard house birdhouse in Wilmington, Delaware.

It is a lovely house, especially considering that this is the view from the kitchen window It also has beautiful, well-tended gardens including prolific raspberry bushes Although the interior hasn't been updated for quite some time (this is pre-cleaning and staging) and the layout (especially upstairs) is somewhat dysfunctional, with low, head-bonking ceilings, and a bath room that is also functions as the only hallway between one bedroom and the rest of the upstairs. Additionally we were concerned that the condition of the rubble foundation might frighten potential buyers, or cause them to demand extensive, expensive repairs even though the foundation has been unchanged for decades. So although we thought it was a good house in a great location, and will be somewhat sad that it is gone, we are happy and thrilled that it sold as quickly as it did, especially since the buyers seem to love the house.

They're cute, Casey! This is Mom's wedding picture (obviously). She ended up leaving my Dad in less than 2 years. I was 21 mths old and my brother was 3 months old at the time. She sure was happy that day. (he doesn't have a moustache, although it looks like he does.) It'll be 5 years this summer that Mom died, she'd have turned 80 this past Feb. Hard to believe.
