Coal Hole.

Attached to the side of our house along the drive way is our coal hole. Back in the day, the coal delivery boys would don their top hats and shovel coal for the furnace directly through it to the basement. But that was the late 1990's and we have moved on.

Because it is like a big open window to the outside, you would suspect this had been locked and insulated long ago, wouldn't you?

Wouldn't you?

Would you expect our house to have a cistern as well? How about a cistern that hasn't been decommissioned and continues to sit with fetid water at the corner of our house in the back yard?

Full of awesome.
