Yuck!
I never heard of such a thing!

Oddly enough, one of my dogs pranced into the house the other night with
a tick crawling up her snout.
The temp was about 28=B0 that night.
Where the hell she managed to find the only defrosted tick in the county
is a mystery.

After Xmas, there are piles and piles of unsold trees around here.
What a waste.

I wish my house could "talk".
I wish there were a way to find out all the families who've lived here
and what became of them.
Our local courthouse has land-deeds and such, but finding out other info
is real detective work.

The only name I've found was "Kline", a blacksmith who had it in the
late 1700's.
I have an historical map of the area as it was in 1789, and it has "Jos.
Kline, Blacksmith" in fancy letters, printed over the house location.
It also has the "Indian Springs Post Office/General Store", "Mrs
Steele's Schoolhouse" and several other "hostelry establishments"
situated close by.

The old, old "family place" is back the road a piece and it says "J.
McKenna".
There's nothing left there but a stone house ruin.
Over the ridge from that is where my grandfather got it from the
"revenooers" who raided his "Rabble Run" still.

Crazy local history.
