Heritage Day at the Baugh House was delightful. If you missed it we are sorry. The homemade ice cream was awsome cool, silky and absolutely delicious. The peach was the best. Made with peaches canned several weeks ago at the museum. MMMM my taste buds are still remembering the adventure of fresh made ice cream. Why do we buy that stuff with all the chemicals at the store?
The Baugh House and cabin restoration is moving right a long. The piping for the heat is in the floor and the boiler is wired. A slight detour in the progress has had to be made as Bill Bailey and his trusted side kick John Ross are repairing the roof from the damage done in the July 20th 2009 storm. The roof that Bill put on did not appear to us to need replacing. But the insurance company has a thing that if there was a storm then the roof had to be replaced even though just a few shingles were actually damaged. That's our modern world we live in. The Insurance Companies Rule.
