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.
Ruth
