[Jacob-list] Hillside Farm

[Victoria da Roza]

Geeze Gary,
   Is that your house or an extension of Michigan
State?  My barn envy stopped when I saw your Michigan
winter...that I do not miss.  Your new farm is quite
different than your abode in Davis!!! It is really a
beautiful place and even more special because it has
family history behind it.  Congrats. Victoria
