About Me

My photo
Retired, housewife, mother of three. Picking up the pieces after God decided the 145 year old farmhouse was no longer the house for us. Praise God for His mercy and love!

I can only Imagine

 This photo is from what I have come to call "The Before Time". Before God let the tornado take our farmhouse; but protected us.


One of my five brothers took this picture two years before hubby retired from Civil Service. We drove back and forth from NC for four years, if you will recall; before he actually decided to retire. On one trip my brother thought they could make it, too. He and his wife had come down from Michigan. It rained most of the time they were here.

But on the nice days, he and my hubby built these steps. Brother is a carpenter (well, he runs a construction company) and these steps will last long after nature takes back the house.

I still think about trying to move these steps, but too much stuff in the way now. 

You all be safe and God bless.

    1. Odie, they are. My brother did not build them to the usual "box store" step design. My brother is a good carpenter. :)
