Deb, We moved in here with my Dad seven years ago and I'm STILL cleaning
out STUFF. Everytime I think I have gotten to the last "hidey hole" I find
a new one I didn't know about (had convenienty forgotten existed.) Dad
passed away last Jan so I now don't have to worry that he'll see me getting
rid of his "treasures" and get upset. I swear every generation in this
family were packrats, this generation is no exception. There was the
garage, had once been a barn, that was falling down so I opted to take it
down first. First I had to clean it out, it was packed full right out to
the door openings, no doors left. After son pulled Dad's pickup truck out
I could get in to start cleaning out and sorting out. I lost count of how
many truck loads the scrap iron man took out of there. Thank heavens scrap
was selling at a good price and he was willing to come and get the stuff.
I still have a lot of antique farm implements that were in there though.
