I live here! Well for starters, the big white pine blew over in a 70mph wind quite a few years ago, the little newspaper, The Reminder, actually took a picture and put it in the paper when it happened. There have been many trees come and go, but the snowball bush in the front is still here, as well as the lilac bush, which has grown around the electric pole shown on there. It hasn't been farmed in many years, and that back field has been sold about 14 yrs ago. Not much has changed inside, but we had a partial remodel about 8 yrs ago. New windows and doors, and a new roof. Updated a bedroom, a bathroom, and the front porch you see in front with all the windows going across. When they stripped the roof off, they had to go down to the first original layer. They went through 5 layers, which ended up being cedar shakes from the late 1800's. There is a circle driveway around the house, and a three stall garage on the right side of the house in the back. This was my grandparents house, and I live here now.Thanks for the memories!
