History

So I said that I would share a little more about the history of our home.  I took a few old pictures of the photos that were left for us that show what the home used to look like.  Take a look....

 

This is an aerial shot of the house
Photo is guessed to be in the 50's

This is a copy of a painting or drawing of the house (year unknown)

 

This is a winter shot that matches the aerial view

so our guess is again in the 50's.

This is apparently the original homestead

the year is unknown and due to the damage

 of the photo it is tough to see it well.

Cows in the pasture

Down in our Michigan basement the original owners incorporated old bottles and the ones that are unbroken are filled with seeds.  Kind of an early sign of 'preppers' (haa haa) I'd like to know if any of those seeds would germinate anymore. I also find that every time it rains and the ground is washed out in different areas I find new relics around the yard.  While landscaping and digging something new always pops up!  It is kind of neat. 

I hope that we are able to learn more about the history of our new found home and maybe even some more neat 'treasures' along the way!
