So much has changed. This was my grandparents farm (John Thomas Cooper). He built the house when my mother was a year old. The only thing standing is the long barn on back left and the little white building in front of it.

This was the house I grew up in from the time I was born until I came to Augusta to school. I loved this place and it meant so much to me just to see it go up in flames. Nothing left but front porch slab. My heart breaks to see it all gone.
