 This sweet Victorian building was and still is on the farm where I grew up. It has had many uses over the years; a chicken coop, a storage building and playhouse by us among all the farm storage. Recently it has been home to a holstein calf who grew up to be a big boy who will gently slather your face with his big tongue if you let him, a few Jersey calves with their decadently long lashes and baby pigs all watched over by a pair of dogs.
