"A Visit To The County" (The Rest of The Story)

I am very pleased that my daughter has the 50 acres she does that was part of my grandparents 150 acre farm!!  It is a beautiful spot!!

This is my daughter and my son-in laws home!!

I took it from the corner of the barn to have an perspective on

the layout of the building locations.  The mountain is across the road!!

From the roadside looking down there drive, and what you see

beyond are far as the eye can see is Canada!!

There driveway comes out right at the bottom of this photo,

and this hill my sister and I went sledding on all winter!!

We also would have a fire half way down the hill

and go sledding at night . We could slid down across the

flat area and half way up the drive to our home!!

I would love to have a dollar for every time I went down and

climbed back up that hill *sigh*

I love this grove of White Birch that sets near the end of the

driveway!!!

This mountain I climbed, roamed, investigated and spent many hour

enjoying the beauty of the forest !!

The bedroom in my daughters home where I slept, looks out on this!!

There bedroom looks out over the other side to Canada!!

Right behind this beautiful White Birch used to set a one

room school house. My sister did her first year of school there!

I am 14 months younger and the teacher used to let me

set in with the other kids occasionally, and I always was there

to play at recess!! : }}

I will end with a few photos from my Grandparents days!!

This drawing was done by my older sister,from and old

picture and from memory! We spent many happy days here!!

My daughters home sits back up the hill from here...I'm not to go at measurements,

but I would say approx. 600ft

This is my Grandparents !

My Grandfather is holding my Mom.  (Probably the fall of 1921)

They are setting on the knoll that is very close to where my daughters home sits!!

This is my Mom with the Sheep on the farm!!

Now my daughters Sheep walk the fields here!!

The house and property was willed to my uncle..who's property adjoined it!!

Years took its toll on the house and passing away of family left most of the property for sale !!

I am very pleased that at least 50 acres will remain in the family!!
