In the olden days the grain mill was most often the “Heart” of a community. Here at Metcalf Mills our goal is not only the preservation and education of the grain milling process, but also to help provide a service and products that help make good, healthy, fresh milled goods more available to individuals and communities. And hopefully bring back some of that “Heart” and maybe a little more Love.

My uncle parks was a cabin builder in the 1800s. One of his cabins still stands today and is still used. It's awesome to drive by it and know the pride they took in their work during that time.
Thank you for sharing this with us! That’s great!
When we were children in south GA, we worked in tobacco.my older sisters cropped and strung it. I unstrung it for 3 cents a stick once it was dry. There was nothing like those peanuts and coke when we got a break. Good memories. The money we made went to buy our school clothes. 👩🌾👍💙
Thank you so much for sharing this with us!!❤️
What a testament to craftsmanship. Built by those who needed their work to last… not the replace/disposable mindset of today’s construction
That’s for sure! Thanks Karen
That is an amazing, historical barn. The craftsmanship that went into building it no longer exists on a large scale nowadays. The button latch on the door reminds me of the old railroad shack house I grew up in. Our doors were both secured from the inside with button latches. Now I have the doorknob lock, a deadbolt and a chain lock, but I still don't feel as safe and secure as I did growing up in that old house. Thanks for sharing such a great and interesting piece of history. It speaks volumes about the people who built it and their knowledge and intentions of building something that would stand the test of time. Nothing is built to last too long now. Those materials and techniques are a novelty in today's world and so is that mindset. I look forward to seeing more history through your eyes, Justro. 😊
Thank you for sharing this with us Sandy! Glad you enjoyed 🙂
I love to see the character of these old buildings, and the quality of the workmanship of the folks who built them. What a beautiful old barn. Thank you for sharing this with us Justro. Blessings to you, and your family.
Me too! Thank you so much!
What an amazing feat of craftsmanship this barn is Justro! So glad it is still with you today!
Yes it sure is. I am thankful that it is still here.
I am left pretty much speechless with this craftsmanship! Never seen anything like it and probably never will again. I can see why you are drawn to it, beautiful and highly thought out skill.
That is for sure. Thanks Sheila
Too many people don't know their own history. I am so blessed to have you sharing your history and your story.
Oh Justin.... this is awesome!
I drank 2 mugs of coffee while watching. Thank you.
Aw thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed ❤️
Built solid with skill, purpose-in-mind, and gorgeous with repurposed iron goods. The multifunctionality of this barn is a testament to how nurturing and productive farm life in Appalachia is--a point of pride and respect. Thank you for sharing this family treasure!
Thank you so much! I fully agree. So glad I can share with you all❤️
I love this old barn. I love the way it was put together. Our house has pegs in the attic it is a 2 story cabin built in 1700’s. The foundation logs sets on a rock wall When i looked at logs and chinking through the porch ceiling of the house i started to cry thinking of the hands that built it. I love that era of time. I love the history. There is so much lost knowledge. These buildings need preserved. Thank you for sharing this. This barn is massive - the construction leaves me awestruck It is amazing..
I fully agree and I understand. Thank you so much for sharing Deborah. ❤️
Ingenious methods, our ancestors weren’t educated formally but they were smart folks. They figured things out and adapted what they had to meet the need. Thanks for sharing.
They sure were and did. Thank you Lynn, glad you enjoyed
All I can say about that barn is WOW! Thanks Justro.
Glad you enjoyed it Rick!!
Justin, this is a great story, documentary, vlog, video or any title you want to give it. You did the narration, the filming ,directing, producing and editing. For a long event more than one hour this was very remarkable. You did a fine job all the way around and should be very proud of this piece.
The attention to detail to know you needed to draw attention to something and film it framed in the right angle to show the item of interest and then call it out in the best understandable nature is the real execution of the filming and narration.
I really was impressed with your building knowledge esp in the old thyme ways. We are losing so much knowledge every year. Every single one of the folks out there are saving the old thyme ways any way they can is a blessing. Thank you for what you are doing because it matters a lot. Bye for now
Aw thank you so much brother! I try to do a good job as I can. I hope folks enjoy and I hope it helps. I appreciate you! Thank you for the compliments
Thanks for sharing. There’s just something about old barns. They all have a story and hold history for us to uncover and explore.
That is so true. Thank you
that old barn is a treasure.
For sure
Thank you so much for this barn tour❣️ I love the big beautiful old building. I’m glad no one has wrecked it and that it’s still loved!
Me too Drew. Thank you
That's awesome. They built them well back then. I wish the people today would have as much pride in their work as they did then.
I do too. I don’t know if there will ever be anything like that again..
Thank you Kelly
I love those old buildings! FYI the footing across the bottom of the stall doors served a purpose; in most cases it rested on the ground, and kept stall bedding from spilling out into the aisle. In the tack room, those tree sections nailed to the wall are "saddle trees" - some in that room may have been shortened, but normally they are 15-20 inches, and you would set saddles on them. I rented a similar but much smaller barn for about a year in North Carolina; it looked like a drunken sailer, the entire building had a slight lean to it! Very few of these old buildings are in such remarkably good condition!
Thanks for sharing Julia! 🙂
You are a real historian! Thanks so much for this hour and a half of learning.
Glad you enjoyed it Nancy
They were engineers in their own right. Thanks for the tour of this beautiful barn.
That’s for sure! Glad you enjoyed
Thank you for showing me that wonderful barn. Fascinating craftsmanship in every detail. So much beauty in the care taken to build something so useful and long lasting.
Glad that you enjoyed ! Thank you
Thank you for sharing this, Justro. It is amazingly special in and of itself. I can’t imagine how special it must be to you being tied to your ancestry. Sometimes, in an old building, like in that inner hallway of the barn, a person can stand there and be transported back in time for a moment, not physically, of course, but you can feel the past there.
I agree. Thank you Tracy🙂
Thanks I will never look at an old barn the same way again. You can sure make a barn talk to you.
Glad you enjoyed it! I try to listen
Beautiful old barn. You need to get as much of it on video as you can, because someday that's all that will remain, unless someone repairs all the rot before it's to late and that would be a crying shame. There was a big old dairy barn up the road from us when I was a kid that we used to explore every chance we got. We loved that old barn. They hand milked there way back when. The barn was huge, it had 2 rows of 15 milking stantions in it with an overhead trolley to carry the mike cans outside to load onto waiting wagons. It had a huge hay loft in the top and huge silo in back. Then one night some low life burned it down. What a CREEP. Keep saving history Justro and thanks.
Thank you for sharing this with us. I understand. I know of some historic sites that were burned. Thank you
Wonderful video. I just can’t imagine how much lumber and man hours went into building this barn. Thank you for sharing the barn with us.
Glad that you enjoyed! Thank you
That is a treasure. My dream barn. I want country so badly again. I would never want a pricey house but a log cabin and a barn for sure plus a chicken coup. They made things to last then and took pride in their work. I keep praying that it is God's plan for me. God's blessing to you and yours
I understand, and ai hope so. Thank you HB!
A lot of very interesting facts about that ol barn. I always liked playing in old barns as a kid.. I still enjoy going around old homeplaces and doing a little exploring. Sometimes we take my daughter's little cheap metal detector.Thanks for sharing.
Aw that’s fun. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.
Awwwwww, That smile 🥰 that smile and little head nod at the end where you talk about exploring for all these years alone and now you get to share it with us….it was so sincere and warmed my heart and I’m so happy you are sharing it, I LOVE coming along ❤️
I love to explore and imagine what times were like, how they lived, how hard they worked and for some reason just standing where they stood and touching what they touched gives me so many emotions, thoughts and feelings, I savor it !
Your comment, “if walls could talk we’d be here a lowng tiiime” is so very true ! I just know your uncle would be filled with pride that he has family who has an appreciation and respect for his labor and craftsmanship!!!
I wish I didn’t have to get busy canning because I could spend all day with you :)
Have and wonderful day and may God find favor in you 🙏🏻
Blessings
Aw thank you so much for this message. I am so glad I can share. It sure is an experience!
I appreciate you and may God bless you too ❤️🙏🏻
Wow,I'm kinda at a loss for words right now,so much to take in.Its amazing to see how so much was accomplished in the building of your Uncle's Barn.The time, labor,and dedication to build something so magnificent.Thanks Justro for sharing The History of Your Family with us,for it is a Treasure,Have a Great Week and God Bless 🙂.
Thank SL Donald! Glad that you enjoyed it. It sure was. Hope that you do as well!
You have a treasure! I am so glad that it's still standing and how much we can learn from it. Stay blessed.
I have seen a ton of old barn tours and enjoyed every one of them. This one is by far the best I have seen. You even did it in the old down home lingo, wagon tars, backer and styles, where we would say tires, tobacco and stalls. Thank you very much. My Dad was from Kentucky so I had no problem understanding you.
Art from Ohio
Howdy Art, I humbly appreciate your compliments and I am glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing with us.
Loved the tour of the historical barn. I often think about my great great grandparents that lived in the 1800's.
Glad you enjoyed! I understand
What a magnificent old barn! The details are just amazing.
They sure are. Thank you
Beautiful barn...oh the stories it could tell...so much history and beautiful craftsmanship! Thank you for taking us with you and your knowledge of it 🌻🌻
So glad that you enjoyed it!
Great history lesson. So many times they’re there, but we don’t stop to think about them. I try to imagine when they were first built.
Thank you RR!!
Now that barn is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen! Blessings, julie
I agree. Thank you Julie
I Love this barn! Beautiful craftsmanship. To bad we can't go back to see it being built. Thanks for showing it to us.
For sure, thank you!
They really could build stuff back then. Very cool.
That’s for sure!
What an amazing piece of history. Thanks for sharing this. So many of us would never get the opportunity to see the details of something this beautiful. I’m in my 60s I am not physically able to go tour something like this. Thanks again.
I am so glad that I can share these things. It makes me happy to hear this ❤️
Love this, I remember playing in barn loft as a child in the 60s and I could look down through the cracks and see daddy's old mule in his stall.
Absolutely stunning…hope they continue to make repairs and keep it up…thank you so much for bringing this to us….❤️
Glad that you enjoyed it! ❤️
Justin I love this barn so much I'm already watching it a second time. I just want to say this... You mentioned that this barn and its many unique features speak to you. Well I don't know what people call people like you and me, but I'm the same way about barns and other beautiful historical things. They do very much speak to my heart. Often I've been given antiques from my family that I genuinely cherish. Not because of its monetary value but because it is my history, my blood, my soul that is somehow connected to it. Like you say... It calls to me. I'd have very much loved to have been a child in this neighborhood where your family's barn was being built. I can see myself sitting there on one of the huge rocks that would have been brought to the site for the foundation of the barn. I would have sat there in amazement watching the men build this barn by the sweat of their brows and by God's provisions. I really do wish I could have watched it being built. And I hope as I would have been watching the barn build, somewhere in time I'd have gotten to drink of perhaps a beautiful nearby cool mountain spring, that flowed freely, unchanged from the depths of God's creation. Thank you so very much for sharing this. I will treasure this knowledge and experience always.❤😊
Aw thank you so much Sonya ❤️. I am so glad that you enjoyed
Just amazing. I've never seen anything built that sturdy. people back then did best they could. I had a great granddaddy that was a blacksmith . He built a large shop that was incredible . They were a different breed back then . Bless them all my friend . Thanks Justro great story .
That’s for sure! Thank you for sharing. Amen!
Thank you for the tour of the barn. I thoroughly enjoyed video. I'm a retired RE appraiser that worked in the Middle Peninsula of Virginia for the last 30 years. As such, It was my good fortune and pleasure to appraise numerous historical plantations undergoing various stages of renovation. Many of the wooden boards had been repurposed over the 2-3 centuries. Most of the saw marks in the barn appeared to be radiused from a circular saw. Others I couldn't make out clearly but might have been straight. Almost, but not quite, perpendicular to the width of the board. If you find straight saw marks, the boards may have been cut using the "Pit " sawn method. That would indicate those boards may have been repurposed from an earlier building, perhaps from the colonial era. Danny's mention of "square" nails is referring to hand made cut nails. You can still buy cut nails, but they are no longer made by hand. Just thought you and your viewers might find the additional information interesting. Looking forward to your next video.
Amazing place !! Thanks for sharing once again .
Glad you enjoyed Rodney
SO BEAUTIFUL!!!! THANKS FOR THE TOUR!
Glad you enjoyed!
Neat old barn, thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed friend!
That barn is a masterpiece! Thank you for taking us through and sharing all the details you've been studying over the years 😊 (nice goat impression by the way 🐐)
It sure is Sunny! Glad to share. Thanks🙂
So very thoughtful and lovely! Thank you for sharing every detail. :)
Glad you enjoyed!
What an amazing barn. It's so impressive the work that it took to build barns like that years ago and the design that went into them. Please preserve it if you can.
Yes it sure is Jeff! Thank you
One reason old stuff wasn't torn down was that people didn't have the money to tear down and buy new stuff. Sometimes you go back into the computer historical achieves behind a pay wall and find the information. Libraries usually have a computer one can access for free. I'm not paid to mention the Ancestry site. I found out the year my g grandfather built his barn through a newspaper clipping. Newspaper told of the barn raising. Cousins own that barn. Our family barn was raised in 1874 using the lumber from the farm. Farm still has 20 acres of woods. Nice video. Eaglegards...
Thank you for sharing and glad you enjoyed!
Not sure, but I’ve been told that there was a belief that tearing down an old barn is bad luck. Could be it just stems from not having the money to tear it down lol most of that stuff does have it’s roots in practicality made spiritual. Anyway I’m glad they didn’t. 😉
I’m going to have to check out some of my local library’s old newspapers, used to be on microfische and likely now all digitized, to learn more about my property. Thank you for that idea.
@@tagladyify that’s for sure. Thank you
Hey Justro. I haven't had time to watch the whole video, but what I've seen is truly great. I love old barns and I love hearing the story about this one. I got a feeling there is a date on there somewhere so don't give up looking. You'll find it someday. Keep the videos coming. You're the best Justro. 👍🇺🇲❤️
Glad you are enjoying. Thanks Tom! I hope so can help in some way. ❤️🇺🇸
I love the hall of the barn , it reminds me of daddy's barn when I was a young boy. Great video thanks my friend God Bless you.
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks Ricky, God bless you too
Amazing video, Justro! Thank you for sharing all your knowledge of the history and building techniques. Beautifully done and, as always, you have a gift for teaching and explaining things.
Aw thank you Mrs Linda. Glad you enjoyed
Lots of really smart details in this barn.
That is for sure
Absolutely amazing video! Thanks for sharing.
So glad you enjoyed!
thank you for the barn tour... its Absolutely amazing. 😍
It sure is. Glad you enjoyed it Lindsey
I'm as country as they come but I never heard anyone say barnd, thought I misheard at first. Keep them videos coming, I love'em.
Thank you Robert
Fascinating old barn structure. Good video!
It sure is! Thank you
Thank you so much for this tour full of history! I love to watch the Barnwood Builders TV show, (those boys are in West Virginia so you might be familiar). One of the first things that comes to mind when seeing these marvels is; what a bunch of spoiled wimps we are these days! I cannot imagine how much work to saw, drag, debark, hew, etc. enough logs to build that barn! I hope the owner is able to repair those few rot places & keeps an eye out for leaks in the roof, that’s what will kill the place pretty fast. Thanks again
I agree. Thank you and glad you enjoyed.
justro, you've outdone yourself this time....man, what can i say, this barn is truly a work of art....when i was younger i always wanted to write a book about barn's and illustrate their construction and ultimately what was the failure that caused their demise...the attention to detail in this barn can only be compared to ancient Japanese carpentry technics....the men that built this one were true craftsman from a by gone era....keep up the good work...respect floyd richard earl merriman....
Thank you so much! I appreciate you sharing this with us.
Glad you enjoyed!
Lucky man to have so much history around you. Thanks for sharing!!!
I am thankful. Thank you
Looking forward to seeing more. Love the blacksmithing hardware. Started blacksmithing about 10 years ago trying to bring back some lost history. God bless and have a great week.
Pat
@@onecrowingrooster2239 thank you!
I can understand why this barn is a treasure and so special. It's solid and beautiful! Still standing and walking through it is surreal! The antique dresser also caught my eye ♥️ Someone needs to clean that up and use it! Blessings my friend, Barbara
Glad that you enjoyed it! I agree. Thanks BL!
It is so beautiful and lush up there….
It nice Beverly
Interested! There is so mucj forgotten wisdom and skill in the way many structures and farmering operation were designed and built. Paying attention. Thank you for sharing your treasure.
That’s for sure! Glad you enjoyed
What a beautiful barn, I sure would love to have one like it for sure! I very much enjoyed this tour. Thank you so much for sharing. Have a blessed day.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed, hope that you do as well
Great video Justin, amazed at those 48 foot beams .❤
Thanks Tim! Glad you enjoyed
I love those old barns, I could have spent hours there with you exploring the construction. Not many old barns left anymore, especially here in Texas.
That is for sure!!
What a very cool barn. It is a beauty💕
It sure is CM
Justro it looks to me they had more then one person’s making logs! The logs was probably saw with a water wheel sawmill! The hand hewn logs were local made. That is a big barn .
Thanks for sharing CD! Glad you enjoyed
Really enjoy the video I love old barns
Glad to hear that Tami!
Thank you so much. I love it.
Glad you enjoyed 🙂
Beautiful structure! Nicely presented!
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed
After showing the metal hook made from a horseshoe by the tack room could have been used to hang their oil lanterns when they went to the barn to do chores before daylight milk the cow feed horses etc.
Good thought, but I think it would have been too close to the wall to do that. Thanks for sharing Rick!
Good to see , my neighbors up the road have one still standing from 1840s , property still in same family , A lot of the old barns and sheds are gone in my area . Good video , Enjoyed it very much
Thank you for sharing Mark! Glad you enjoyed
Justro, thank you so much. How special to watch. I’m so glad I got up early to see your video. Happy Sunday to you. Bless you and your family. 🌸😊🌸
Aw I’m so glad that you enjoyed it! Bless you and have a wonderful day! 🙂
That is the most amazing barn I've ever seen. It is huge! I can only imagine what it felt like to stand inside it, as well as walk around it. It has such beautiful craftsmanship and quality all throughout it's structure. No wonder you were drawn to spend time in it as a child and growing up. I hope to see this barn one day in my travels, if I am so lucky.😊❤
It sure is and yes I was. Thank you Sonya
I enjoyed the tour! Thanks for sharing!
I helped build some log houses back in early 80's and knew how to notch out those dovetailed logs. we used a hatchet and would carve a cup in the top notch for sure. I cant remember if we cupped the bottom. Many people have never been inside a barn like you just showed us and I have only been inside one since about 50 years. I feel lucky to have experienced what I have of the older times. Your uncle was smart to build a barn that you didn't have to throw hay up to the loft. The loft is big enough that I'm sure there was plenty of throwing just to stack it. Not everyone had hay elevators but it was nice when you could use one.
Thank you so much for sharing this with us Nelse. I understand, I am thankful for what I have experienced as well. That’s for sure, stacking hay with a fork!!
Howdy Justro- the craftsmanship and time that was put in building that barn still speak today. I would love to see it in person and check it out. Doing forensics on an old building is mighty interesting. The detail in this old barn is amazing. I’d sure love to spend some time with you and hunt them old log buildings. Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to make this video. Take care and God bless y’all
Thanks Brother! Please send me an email when you can.
@@metcalfmills5679 Sure will brother. Have a great day. Blessings to you
@@TheBeardedCarpenter you too, blessings to you my friend
Justin - You did it again! Excellent architectural and history explanations on this 1800s barn. Very impressed with your attention to details and sharing it. Thank you.
Thank you! So glad to share and glad you enjoyed! ❤️
what a treasure.
For sure! Thanks Mary
Very nice old barn.
It sure is
Beautiful. I hope I can leave a building like this behind.
For sure. Thank you
Absolutely beautiful!
Thank you so much!
Thank you for the detailed history lesson. I can see why your fascination with this barn is so special.
Thanks Ellen! Glad you enjoyed ❤️
This was fun 😁 I always say I must be a descendant of Daniel Boone because I love to explore. Can’t wait to see the next place you show us! Thanks Justin! 😊❤️
I understand ! Thanks for watching Lisa!
That was amazing....thank you 🌞
Glad you enjoyed!
Good morning. I am so thrilled. I've been in a lot of Pennsylvania barns, but not many in the Appalachian mountains. Pretty sweet. Things were built so over the top and thankyou for showing us the true heritage and culture. The greatest journey so far . Love it. I'll be watching for the next one.
So glad you enjoyed it! Looking forward to sharing it with you! ❤️
@@metcalfmills5679 I replayed on tv for Robert wow it's so fantastic to see such old beauty. Maybe they had secret Mason meetings in there,? Thanks again.
@@tpaw6908 that is a possibility. Thank you! ❤️
Amazing woodworking detail. Thanks for sharing 🙏 😎 🏖 🏝
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you for sharing!😊
Glad you enjoyed
Thank you Justin for showing us the special secrets of the beautiful family barn. I loved learning all about it.
So glad you enjoyed it! Thank you PJ❤️
Just wanted to say Good morning, Justro! Thank you for sharing your family treasures.
Thank you Kathryn! So glad that you enjoyed!
Howdy from down the road in Iredell County. Thanks for sharing! That is an amazing barn. I can’t imagine taking on building such a structure today. I’m always amazed at what folks accomplished years ago. We only have one original barn left on our farm that was built, I think in the late 1920’s and the foundation is getting a little sketchy on it. I love seeing old farm buildings and barns, keep up the good work!
Hey Mitch, glad to hear you enjoyed. Thank you for sharing. I am glad that I can share
People just don't understand exactly how difficult making hand hewn posts from locust wood is. Such an incredibly hard wood.
It is hard, thank you
@@metcalfmills5679 you know that it burns so dang hot it can melt a wood stove. You gotta blend the wood with softer woods that don't burn so hot. Osage is another super hard hot burner. They say locust and Osage make the best bows though.
That's really special! As it still stands there, it says to me: a man's wealth was measured in land, barns, & livestock. Now we have handed those things over to corporate owned farming systems, for the majority anyway. Just as you seek to build community around the grist mill, I dream of a large community kitchen, where homesteaders come together to process their produce together, building community. Technology can have its uses, but we have lost alot when we allowed it to consume our daily living. Just thing with the better understanding of health and hygiene blended with sound old fashioned agricultural practices, how much healthier would we be. I see you have that lifestyle around you. I have educated children about heritage skills before in my county. They do not know ketchup is from tomatoes. I show them a apple and corn and they agree they are from the earth, but I show them a snickers bar, and they say they are from the convenience store. Granted that's not good eating, but what is concerning is the disconnect from their food. We have alot of work to do.... Carry on Justro, your children are blessed....
Thank you so much for sharing this with us Janet! Yes sure do! ❤️
I sure enjoyed that video.
Thank you!
Hello Justro
Enjoyed the video you said it was going to be a good one and it was. That is truly a historical place. I would have like to seen it built. That type of craftsman ship is amazing. It was something that was passed down from one person to another. Lots of detail on that front of the barn. The picture you have of the front in the Autumn or fall is a great picture. I hope you can find a picture of the old home place
Glad you enjoyed and it sure is! I hope so too. Thank you!
What a magnificent barn. The details… “I love stuff like ‘at. It talks to me, and I listen.” Every single angle of it on the outside is beautiful. I would imagine that a barn like that back in those days would have spoken to people immediately, of who your great, great uncle was and what he embodied. And the fancy farm house too. Those arched windows from the farm house along with some photos of the old house and barn would be really pretty on a wall. I hope you have photos of the inside main hallway. The way the light shines through the long hallway there is special and would be nice framed. I agree that taking down a lot of the tobacco holders will give a wonderful look at the original. Maybe if they leave a few up in a corner it will maintain the progress of history, because the tobacco years and the way they did it is history too. You’re so blessed that this is still standing. My only complaint is that I was teased with the goats, but no closeups or petting.🐐😂 Seriously though, I could hear the deep connection that you have with your history and ancestors in your voice at the end of the video, the same thing I noticed when you were up at your great, great granddaddy’s place. I know that words can’t convey that kind of thing and I have the same feelings with mine. Just wish the house and barns were still standing like yours. (I’ll have to watch this a couple a more times in order to take it all in. Have to spend the rest of my day taking advantage of the 60 degrees July weather in the garden, but I’ll be back…)❤️
Thank you so much for sharing this with us! I enjoyed it. Very good suggestions. Thank you!❤️🙂
I didn’t pet the goats because I figured they would start balling and you wouldn’t be able to hear me🤣
I figured as much. Just kidding!😉
@@deborahstrickland9845 ha ha! 🤣
Fantastic! Thanks for the tour!
