This is where I grew up, the house my mom and dad built! I see their huge garden in back of our house, my dad's tractor...I love this! We built a big calf barn in the back of the property, which is not pictured here. I know a lot has changed since we lived there. Such great memories!!

We own this property but a few of the buildings are gone along with the silo. Besides the barn out back that is not shown, is a horse barn behind the house.

I too grew up in this house. We built the horse barn when I was very little but I remember it going up. The area it was built was loaded with raspberries, my mom kept a large patch of them, we made so many things from them! The calf barn was behind that, it's also not pictured. Never saw it with the silo, that's neat! I can still walk every inch of this in my mind, even what no longer exists. Truly the house/farm that built me.

Purple Haze Orchard. W11914 Blanecae Rd.

I remember the morning we woke up to find the silo had fallen down from a previous night storm! It was quite a sight!
