We finally finished the cleanup for the auction. Everything is out of the house. A sign was found which indicated when the house was built. The date is difficult to see but it says, "Saturday, October the 5th, 1895." It was removed since the house is slated to be demolished.
The sheds have been cleaned out and moved into place. Some may even be able to be used by whoever purchases the property.
The hole the larger red shed had fallen into was filled in with dirt washed in by the flood.
The pole building will have wood placed in stacks for the auction. It will also hold hay racks that will be used for many smaller auction items.
Mike mowed the entire field with the tractor. It took an entire day. He found some debris and removed it. The tractor will be auctioned as well.
Other equipment include a disc, planter and cultivator. Dad used these when be farmed the acreage. He had rented the land out so it hadn't been used in quite a while.
The other buildings will have wood stacked for bidding when it comes closer to the auction. The wood shown here was caught in the flood.
