    That is very cool, and if that was what DH had in his family I guarantee you we would be living there. And I would be chief of the “we will be keeping and preserving this property” brigade.

    Haha, I know you would, with your love of history. I do know that he had his sons help him and he put stone walls around the whole 160 acres. And when my grandmother was taken to see it as a little girl, as James Bryant was her grandfather, she was born in Iowa and she said, "It was the most beautiful place she had ever seen in her life" and her Uncle Myron took her riding on a horse drawn sleigh in the snow.

    Tybee: that is a great piece of history to have in your family!

    I got a squirt gun today so I can roust the enemy mockingbird! I can be the crazy lady in the neighborhood doing battle with a bird. I told DH I feel like Lauren Boebert with my fancy new tactical weapon!

    Please report on the success of this war. Curious on how good your aim is with the squirt gun.

    Just curious, rr. Did you get a Super Soaker? Some of those have a very long range.
