HOME PLACE

source: photo taken by my cousin, d.kegley


This is a photo of the Ivey family homeplace where Osmer & Carrie (Papa/Pop & Nanny) lived. All of the grandchildren have fond memories of visiting them there and swinging in the wooden bench swing on the front porch, hearing the screen door squeak when it opened and closed. The homeplace was torn down a long time ago, but it will never be forgotten.
