Many years ago my wife asked me to check out this farm that was for sale in "the county." My good friend Keith and I were going down that way to explore the "Party on the Bay" venue for a benefit we were working on with my cousin Willard.
We were a bit intimated when we cautiously started to drive down the rather long driveway only to be confronted "nose to nose bumper to bumper" with a rather large white truck.
I put my truck in reverse and slowly backed up to let the truck pass. That day I met Jim "Turbo" Cohen and he couldn't of been more pleasant.
He informed us that his girlfriend Lisa keep her horses at the farm and told us it would be fine to "check it out."
Something inside just clicked, and the next weekend my wife and our best friend Terre introduced ourselves to Cammie and Scott.
We all realized we simply needed to get out of the way in order for us to be the new owners of this 5 acre oasis in Back Bay.
The farm requires a great deal of work and is certainly not cheap to own however it has brought our family much joy!
Our dog Marlin actually runs the farm, simply ask any of the 5 horses that he commands on a daily basis.
I don't know if we will be here forever, however today as I prepare my Carolina Skiff for this season's adventures to Blue Pete's for a great meal or to traveling across Back Bay to listen to Most Wanted Band play great music or the big adventure south to Carova, I'm thankful!
Have you made your house home?
The right home will let you know!
