Photo 45-ILA-18

Comments

This is where I grew up. I was 15 or 16 when this was taken. Dad had 80 acres and a small herd of beef cattle. My parents sold it in the 80's, The out buildings are gone now, but the house is still there.

This is my home now. My husband bought this house before we met in 2005 with 5 acres. Two of the buildings are still standing. He cleaned up the large barn after it collapsed and removed the garage. We married in the back yard in 2008 and have two children here.
