Coming up to the old barn...

PS - Do woo like history? Her's a bit about the farm lands:
In the Settlement era, the Mount Hope Lands, comprised of Mount Hope and Poppasquash Necks, belonged to King Philip, Sachem of the Wampanoags. After his death in the “miry swamp” at the foot of Mount Hope in 1676, Plymouth Colony, Massachusetts Bay Colony and Rhode Island all claimed this prized territory. By a royal grant, King Charles II of England awarded the land to Plymouth Colony on January 12, 1680. On September 14, 1680, the Mount Hope Lands, totaling 7,000 acres were sold to John Walley, Nathaniel Byfield, Stephen Burton and Nathaniel Oliver, four wealthy Boston merchants, for 1100 pounds.
Do woo remember our walk in January at Weetamoo Park? Turns out she was King Phillip's sister-in-law!

What a great adventure! I loved all the cool stuff - especially that swan and all the gooses! Mom liked the history, too!

Rooster says that is a cool tractor, but wants to know where the motor is.
Great place and really interesting

Gorgeous! Mom says she loves the old barn and would love to turn something like that into a house to live in. She has always wanted to take one of the old barns we see in the midwest here and transform it info a house.
