Buie Farms

John's family has a farm in Robeson County. We spent the day there today. What a wonderful trip. We had a great time experiencing the farm and hearing all about the places where Grammy grew up. (We also visited Pembroke where Poppy lived...very cool!)

Uncle John (Grammy's brother) graciously showed us around, taught us new things and even gave the children a ride on the tractor. No one enjoyed the tractor ride more than Fig. He loved it!!

Bucket and Cousin "C" (my nephew) had a blast...literally. If they honked that tractor horn once, they honked it a hundred times. Uncle John was very patient with us. The boys will never forget it.


Another highlight was finding arrowheads. They are plentiful in the fields. The children found arrowheads and Indian pottery pieces.

The children love spending time with their cousins. Cousins "L" and "C" went with us and we enjoyed the opportunity to be with them.

Uncle John taught us a lot about corn and cotton. The wheat had already been cut. (This year was a bumper crop!). They also grow soybeans.

We arrived home tired but happy!
Thanks, Uncle John, for a great day on the Buie Farm!

Thanks, Poppy and Grammy...Great idea!

Memories were made.
