I know how you feel Beth. I waited awhile and then did go back. We have a quarter of land we and just sold the house as an acerage so I had to go by to get to the field with dinner. Im used to seeing it now and home it was for me and the memories I have will stay forever. I had my two little ones in that house also. <br />Hope your doing better<br />HugsLisa https://www.blogger.com/profile/02085717440371812847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-344902957315839144.post-87613330469702183152010-07-10T14:59:39.094-05:002010-07-10T14:59:39.094-05:00Oh I never try to go back till years later.

That why here at my ranch I think will have have to die cause the thought of it possible all dieing or getting over grown just hurts too much. Especially when you planted it all and spent years for it to mature. I know that one day I too will not be able to keep up with the work. Don't want to think of that either. Yes it's tuff going back...Here I Am Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00012970808535383471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-344902957315839144.post-29726982194952907782010-07-10T08:59:51.288-05:002010-07-10T08:59:51.288-05:00I sure got a taste of that my Twin, when I revisit...I sure got a taste of that my Twin, when I revisited my old home place when my sister-in-law passed away three years ago. Nothing was the same..not the house we lived in, not the street itself. My schools were gone including the high school. We went to see Daddy's grave, my brothers, sons and me, and my oldest brother keeps it looking good. It is always heart wrenching to see all of your fond memories only in your mind and heart many times, and not there physically. But it's also a reminder-- and not an unhappy one, that this is temporal, passing and so we look onward to a new life to come.Ramblingonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00796934980023316493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-344902957315839144.post-49117126000016663472010-07-10T01:18:54.570-05:002010-07-10T01:18:54.570-05:00My thoughts are with you..TC..

There are so many changes each time we go, mostly my old haunts being torn down to make room for more condos. Mom is getting on in years and once she passes I don't think I'll be making that trip anymore. There won't be anything left back there for me. Maybe that's what drives me to shoot as much of the old familiar places as I can. I'll always have the memories and the photos.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08812329358511747697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-344902957315839144.post-82427963772457109822010-07-09T17:50:12.145-05:002010-07-09T17:50:12.145-05:00It must be so hard and I am sorry for how you are ...It must be so hard and I am sorry for how you are feeling.

Gosh, Beth, I didn't even know you'd sold your house (goodbyeeeeee bean tree!) Well, I know that feeling you had driving by it. Same on my side. My "old" house was so beautiful and kept up to a T. Then I drove by only 6 months after the sale and saw 2 broken windows, the yard a mile high, an old rusted car, and on and on. I actually cried and haven't been by since. Ok, so I'll wish the lake snakes on them, lol, and for your old house and new owners: "May the beans of a 1000 trees grace your roof, sidewalk, and every step you take. That'll teach you for not keeping it the way our Beth did."<br />You know I'm not envying you for the rest of all the paperwork that has to be done. Same here and I feel somewhere between swamped and overwhelmed but I'm knuckling down every day and as Curtis says, "git'n 'er done".<br />Sending BIG hugs your way, Beth. YOU are terrific. xoxoxoJennyDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14329171741191991379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-344902957315839144.post-77746089118563466462010-07-09T16:25:22.570-05:002010-07-09T16:25:22.570-05:00hi beth, thinking of you, guess it must have been ...hi beth, thinking of you, guess it must have been a pretty heart wrenching day for you - hugs-on the positive side, you have a lovely new home, much less work and your family close by. but that doesnt stop you being sad for a little while and you are allowed to be. hope you have a nice weekend. love nita.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02205365191840035777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-344902957315839144.post-46219295664366557442010-07-09T15:51:33.974-05:002010-07-09T15:51:33.974-05:00I must agree with bittersweet.
