Plenty of seeds drop right at her doorstep,which she promptly stores in her pantry.

Where does she get all her energy---super foods or what? Does she have a garden where she grows her own organic vegetables? Or is she just very industrious and well organized. Maybe with such a large house to take care of she could take in boarders who could work out their room and board with help around the house. I would worry about her wearing herself out with all that work, she doesn't look very sturdy but maybe as my Mama would say she "may be little but she's wirey."vichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18428581552807859803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3997422903835675090.post-24891616232810803132017-02-01T13:47:03.202-08:002017-02-01T13:47:03.202-08:00Jeri, Trimble Manor is simply amazing!
