Dundas Farm House demolished

I was out to Spry Point last week and was surprised to see this house in Dundas gone - demolished!

See January 4, 2014 post about this house...

I always thought that was quite the house design. I didn't realize how large it was untill I saw your photos.

Was wondering how long it would take. Seems old houses on PEI are more when they'll be destroyed as opposed to if.

HERITAGE PRAYER

We keep forgetting all of those who lived before us.

We keep forgetting those who lived and worked in our communities.
We keep forgetting those who prayed and sang hymns in our churches before we were born.
We keep forgetting what our fathers have done for us.
We commit the sin, Lord, of assuming that everything begins with us.

We drink from wells we did not find.
We eat food from farmland we did not develop.
We enjoy freedoms which we have not earned.
We worship in churches which we did not build.
We live in communities we did not establish.
This day, make us grateful for our heritage.

Amen
