This is where my mother was raised. My uncle owns it now but it's going to be sold shortly. When we were children we were sent off for Christmas holidays with our grandparents. Even 45 years ago it seemed old but, for us it really was the best of times. I'm sure my cousins would tell a similar story.
I guess Jo I think of the farm and the house in Darraweit as being the same place and forget the farm was a no go zone by the time you were growing up. Now that I think of it Michael told me he had never been there and neither had Craig. Sometimes I imagine every one has had the same experiences as me but it turns out to be different for all of us.

Love this one too. Are there more to come? I think I'm going to have to visit this place.

Sadly, I don't ever remember visiting it.

Yeah, sad but true. I have fabulous memories of the house in town though.
