A ribeira seca...The dry little river

A casa esta num terreno de 6.200m2 onde passa uma linha de agua que esta seca na maior parte do tempo, mas com a chuva comeca a correr agua e por vezes corre bastante. Com a erosao e movimentacao dos solos ao longo dos anos, esta linha de agua ficou bastante funda e irregular. Hoje iniciou-se a movimentacao das terras de modo a torna-la mais homogenea e resistente a erosao, mas mantendo um ar natural. This house is in a plot of land with 6.200m2 . Across the land there is a water line that is dry most of the year, but with rain it starts to have a significant flow of water. Over the years and without any kind of support, this water line became very deep and random. Today we started a new stream of work in order to recover it and make it more homogeneous, but without loosing it's natural beauty.
