Home
at the end of the lane it was to them,
a
one room log house with hearth
where
bread was baked, milk was warmed
and
meat was cooked to feed the family of four.
Centuries
later their home was moved
to
where adventurers may spend the night,
baking
bread, warming milk and cooking meat
to
feed their family of four and more.
This
log house was the original homestead of the Conlin family. It was
donated to the town when their homestead was re-created into the
Conlin Farm. A site of baseball, volleyball, and soccer fields; and
tennis courts.
Unfortunately
the log house has never been truly recognised in the settlement of
Perth and so it sadly sits at the end of lane in another park
gathering dust and critters and the odd adventurer.
Oh I feel sad that it hasn't been taken care of...
ReplyDeleteIt tis. Such a waste when it could have been restored properly.
