It is pretty idyllic : canoeing and fishing in the summer, ice skating in the winter. I don't know how we lived any other way. The kids have had so much fun chasing frogs and catching turtles. I love sitting on the porch and listening to my guys hoot and howl all evening while they are chasing fire flies....
This past fall
This is one ( above) is from a few years ago - the lawn has filled in
Our tire swing out back
A shot from the back. Now the patio and deck is in. The house faces north so this is the SE corner and all the limestone you see is native to the lot.
