A view looking southwest. My dad and brothers Don and John cleared acres of woods to create pasture for our few head of cattle and saddle horses. |
I've been working on this area to make it look like a park. It reminds me of Central Park in Ashland during summer days. A gate leads to a bridle path in Scioto Trails. |
The pond that never goes dry as an underground spring keeps it filled during droughts. |
I enjoy spending hot summer days mowing the pastures and working on the farm. |
Mom would be so proud of the work my sister Sandy and brother in law Mike do at the farm. Mike made the foot bridge. |
The barn where dad surprised my sister Sandy and me on a snowy pre-dawn Christmas morning in 1965 with a pony named Lady. |
Dave I think your property looks amazing, Id love to come out and see it some day. I think its wonderful that you and your siblings are keeping family traditions and memories alive. I wish we had a family farm that I could take care of! Not many farmers in this family other than me! Well Bob Dyke but he is a townie gardener!
