Remember when most everyone lived in a log house ? I'm so glad I moved to this area in time to see the log house near Sailor's Rest where my late Granny was born, walk around in it and go upstairs....It had whitewash on the high ceilinged walls, and was really large for a log house...A dog trot hallway split the house in two and gave the folks a nice cool place to sit on summer days.. I'm glad I had my camera along because it is no more..Sadly, the house's logs and huge stone chimney...[a work of art and SO nice !] ....were passed along to someone needing to erect a 'new' old home. ...Rose of Sharon bushes have spread into a thicket all around, just smothered over with cinnamon vine in the summer....but the Virginia Bluebells and other wildflowers that have crept into the clearing have time to bloom and die before the shade takes over ...Picket fences and palings my Grandpa worked so hard to make have returned to the ground and only the smokehouse still stands , alone in the woods..The little creek still gurgles over it's stony bed just at the edge of the front yard, and I think what fun it was to play in that creek for the little girl who grew up to be my grandmother ..Annie Void Schuff....1830--1957...................Jeannie T ____________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________ Groupon™ Official Site 1 ridiculously huge coupon a day.
