Where do I start?





Since we have moved into our house; Karen has had the idea that she wanted to move the playhouse that she had as a kid to our house. This playhouse was built in Houston, MN in the late 60's or early 70's (memories fade over time), and was trailed to Albert City, IA - where it sat at one farmstead for probably 30 years and was played with by Karen and her sisters. It has been moved back and forth in Albert City and was used as a stand to sell cider out of at the Albert City Threshermans Show and also was moved finally to an area behind some buildings at the farm; where it has been for the last 10+ years. Anyway; on Friday - it made the 200 mile trek back to MN - where it is now in our back yard. Thanks to Poppa Lind for carrying it; Andrew and Jake for helping skid it across our back yard to its final resting spot. A new foundation, sill, roof, trim, floor and paint and it will be played with again by three little girls named Anne, Emie and Katie!
