A New York man retired......
He wanted to use his retirement money wisely,
so it would last, and decided to buy a home and a few acres in Portugal.
The modest farmhouse he looked at had been vacant for 15 years.;
the owner and wife both had died, and there were no heirs.
The house was sold to pay taxes & there had been several lookers at the property.
There was a large barn which had steel doors, which had been welded shut. Nobody wanted to go to the extra expense of cutting them open to see what was in the barn.
It wasn't complimentary to the property anyway......so, nobody made an offer on the place.
The New York guy bought it at just over half of the property's worth;
...moved in, and set about to tear in to the barn.......
Curiosity was killing him.

So, he and his wife bought a generator, and a couple of grinders.......and
cut through the welds.
The Barn…
The doors were welded shut, but an angle grinder took care of that.
What was in the barn...............?
