Cant sleep!!! The sound of the rain on the tin roof above the deck - TopicsExpress



          

Cant sleep!!! The sound of the rain on the tin roof above the deck reminded me of the times we spent at the farm that my great-grandparents owned in Lebanon, Ohio. Once a part of the Underground Railroad. It was an 88 acre farm with 8 bedrooms. It had a wooden spiral staircase which led up to the farm hand quarters. Two huge fireplaces. A huge wooden hand made table that sat at least 20 ppl. Or so it seemed when I was 7 yrs old. A gravel lane lined with Mulberry or blackberry trees. A pump with a aluminum cup that always hung from the red handle. And a rope swing that hung from the great oak tree next to the Black barn. I used to spend hours swinging on it. I can still smell the Apple Orchard, peach trees & strawberry patch. Carefree times..... Id love to swing on that rope swing for just a few more hours. 🌸🌳
