    Friday, I went to work. Anne already knew that they were going to start the trench on Monday. “Mr. Edwards was telling everyone over at the feed store about the oak furniture in your house.” I chuckled, “Is there a newspaper in this town? Because if there is, it must be a Sunday-only issue. News travels too fast to have a daily paper.” I couldn’t wait for 5 pm. I was anxious to get home. Mom and Dad were arriving soon, and I needed to ensure their bedroom was ready for them. I arr

    I think they used the fireplaces for heat. The wood stove in the kitchen would supply heat as well.There was no heat in the bedrooms

    You must be a lawyer. You are correct. Value of the property alone is more than what he paid for back taxes.

    I headed home, trying to imagine what the inside of that house looked like. There was no doubt in my mind that there were no modern convinces. I stopped at the feed store to return the cutting pliers. “Were you able to get onto the property?” “Yes, the cutter removed the lock, but the gate was rusted closed.
