Here's some pictures from our trip this last Christmas to visit the family farm in Funk's Grove, Illinios. This is Mom's side of the family - the Funks have been living in and around this house (named the Outlook) for about 100 years. Before that, there was the Prairie Home (not shown), which is now a museum maintained by an endowment from one of the Funks. The Outlook is maintained by a family farm trust, and any family member needs but call ahead to reserve a room in this beautiful house.

That's pretty cool. Adam says that our uncle Kirk is trying to endow our family's historic farm house as well.
ReplyDeleteIt's a great way to provide a geographic anchor for a large family.
