McDonough Visit to Revisit
On June 12, 2024, Mike & Desi Goon graciously invited Anna Mary & relations back to the farm for a visit. Much has changed! Mike & Desi have done a fantastic job with the beginning of putting their own stamp on the place. A new beginning for the farm!! The pictures attached here show a small part of the new beginning. In addition to the inside changes, the outside change of pulling the fenceline brush along the driveway opens up a terrific view of the fields.

Move Out Prep
On the last weekend in April, 2023, several members of the family traveled to the Farm to begin the final move out process. There was a lot of "stuff" to go thru. A Dumpster was rented. Susan orgamized some on-premise sales. The process was complicated a bit by Anna Mary's stipulation that donations took precedence over dumpster. The "stuff" was sorted & organized by charity based on quality & interest levels. Many iterations of sorting levels.... BUT...the dumpster was filled anyway!!

XMAS in July
Anna Mary wanted 1 more visit to Farm before scheduled "move out" (based on sale in 2020) so a "XMAS in July" celebration was planned & executed (in spite of "move out date being postponed....but that's another story. All of Tom/Anna Mary's children attended along with several spouses, grandchildren/great grandchildren & significant others. A catered lunch was served, special items taken home & Anna Mary told stories of her life (recordings do exist)

Farm 88 Let's Expose the Beams!
After a few years at the Farm, Dad decided that the ceiling/wall log beams of the original log cabin should be exposed/restored. They had been covered up over the years with plasterboard/wallpaper. Dad recruited youngest son Mike & friends to execute the demo work. (Good training for upcoming football season). It was messy! A new brick fireplace was added. Note the before/after in the pics.
