I can't imagine that happening now. However, when two tractor trailers hit me while at a dead stop, the injuries still linger to this day. That's a story for another time. ;-)Sue Colettahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13506701894460706840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5014794345851547607.post-37444966573332601412017-02-27T06:45:25.779-05:002017-02-27T06:45:25.779-05:00The barrels were here when we first bought the hou...The barrels were here when we first bought the house. Don't ask me why, but the previous owners had five barrels stuffed with ashes from the wood stove/chimney. Imagine? Apparently, they never wanted to empty them, so they kept adding barrels. We've been here five years, so they've been empty a while...thankfully. My husband uses the two we have left for scrap wood.
