Jenny described the day in 2012 when Dave brought her and their two sons on a tour of an ancient farmhouse that he had been requested to demolish in a blog post titled “These Walls.” Dave had been urged to do so because the property had become unsafe.
The farmhouse was constructed in 1906. Fortunately, Dave had recently bought a vacant piece of property in the area. Although he didn’t have a plan when he acquired this land, it ended up being the couple’s first significant restoration effort and the place they would raise their growing family.
