As requested


*Shagbark Hickories behind Seven County Hill*

Finally made it up to the top of the farm today to get the overview photos of the farm requested by mrs. mecomber and my dear friend, numberwise, (in Vitamin Sea's meme the other day). Becky and I took Mike and walked a good part of the way, but every now and then Alan picked us up with the truck, as he was working getting wood in.

The rides were most welcome. Seven County Hill is named that because you can supposedly see seven counties from there. You can certainly see quite a distance, although there is no telling what counties you are looking at. We saw many amazing and wonderful things, including a three legged frog, turkeys, vultures, and a marsh hawk.

  5. Hi moos, I think I would miss them too if we moved, but man, the taxed here are outrageous. We may have to.
    Thanks FC, we were lucky to hit such a pretty day.

  6. Yeah, the pretty trees are quite costly around here... the state seems determined to push us out. Palm trees are sure looking better and better...

  9. Hi mrs. m, we often find ourselves comparing other states as well. New York is beautiful and our friends and family are here, but taxes are horrendous.
    Hello Carina, and thanks, I have the hickory trees as mine right now.
