Mostly Moving

 This used to be a large ferro concrete building with a one story house behind it. Both were badly damaged in the earthquakes. It appears that they are going to erect a new building on the property, maybe apartments. What I found interesting here is that right in the middle of the field (at the left edge of the light brown building) is a Shinto Shrine. It was probably the family shrine for the people who lived in the house. The rest of the lot has been cleared but that shrine remains. I suspect that, before they have the Shinto purification rite that usually precedes construction, they will have the Shinto priests remove this shrine.
 Our living room. We are putting the packed boxes in this corner of the room. Not too much has been done yet but we are getting there.
 This is my study. The books and book shelf on the right are going to be donated to Miyagi U and the pile of stuff on the left is going to be thrown away.
 This is the other small room. It was my daughter's when she was still living with us.
Our kitchen after the dish cabinet has been sold to the recycle shop. We are going to take everything on the left side with us.
