Ed's Great Wall of China


My buddy 'Ed' has taken a 20yr. lease on a hutong, located in the mountain region north of Beijing. It's about a one hour drive from downtown - via sidecar of course! Big remodel and construction plans are ready to bring it up to standard.
Anyway, the best part of his place is that a very secluded part of the Great Wall backs up to his property! Actually three of the walls come together in this area.


It was a misty overcast day. View of and from one of guard stations. Ed calls this his office with a view!




The season is changing quickly in the mountain region. Harvest in full swing, a special feeling in the air.
