Very sad Peter......

In our home we have a 4'x5' old sepia toned picture of a farmhouse and the ponds and woods surrounding it. It was done from a photo and is the farm once owned by Karen's grandparents where she grew up. They sold it in 1967 when she went to live with her mother and they entered the Peace Corps. Karen has wonderful childhood memories stemming from them and that place. We buried her grandmother in the old churchyard at Weldon Springs, just across the road, a few months ago. The little church is all that's left, surrounded by condos, apartments, and shopping strips.
