Farm

[Tiramisu]

Do you think you'll ever live there?

My parents have the 44 acres that my sister, brother and I haven't "split" yet. There's a creek running through our property, but it's overgrown and blocked. This property belonged to my great-grandparents. My Dad bought it from his uncle in 1948, just before my parents got married. They lived in the house that was on the property for about 8 years and built the house that my brother lives in there now. This land is connected to the land my Dad's parents owned and one of his brothers bought land on the other side. A cousin lives on the property she inherited from her Dad and, being the first born grandchild, bought our grandparents' property. So, my brother and cousin live next to each other (about 60 acres).

I'd love to live there, but doubt I'll ever be able to get there. We'll pass it to our kids, when we ever get it split to ourselves. I hope I'll keep my memory of the place and wonderful childhood I had there.
