The 'Ole Home Place

This is the farm where I grew up.
 Things sure have changed since back then, but, oh, the memories from the home place!!  A few years ago, my brother Jim and I stopped here (not sure if my sister Vi was with us or not).  Now an Amish family lives there and she so kindly showed us through the downstairs of the home.  Wow!!  What a change and it's so beautiful!!  Since I was out that way the last time they've torn down Daddy's big old barn.  It looks sort of bare :o)
 This is another farm down in the little valley from the old homestead.  There's an Amish family that's lived there for years and years.  Their kids were younger than me by a few years and I still have contact with them.  I like to go visit them when I can and am in Lancaster County.  They are wonderful friends!!
