Down by the pond lived a shed housing a large mystery engine and all its accompanying wires and pipes. The shed was a bit falling down with the doors coming off the hinges and a few shingles missing. We weren't exactly sure what its function had been - one person told us it was a turbine engine to produce electricity. We eventually decided it had probably been tied into the sprinkler system for the yard. Whatever it had done in the past, it did nothing now but provide a home for an astonishing variety of spiders.
We had originally planned to put new doors on it and paint it and just leave well enough alone, which has worked out *so* well for us in the past. Next thing I know, this happens:
The shed was torn down and most of the pipes cut away. The main pipe and the engine itself were both too entrenched and heavy to take out, which left us with a cement slab and an engine. A suggestion was made that we could put a bench there and maybe built some sort of table over the
engine. And then this happened:
