What's in our name?

I rarely take time to explain the name of our farm. Some call us "Tri Lea", "Tri Gable", and "The Farm". There are other names for some of the homes on our street. There's "Thistle Rock", "Newski Knole", "Centennial Farm", "Sound View Farm" to name the ones I can recall. We wanted a name for ours as well, and we thought about it for years. 

Then all at once it came together. I was reading a book, "The Story of English in 100 Words" One of the oldest was lea. 

Lea

noun

1. a tract of open ground, especially grassland; meadow.
2. land used for a few years for pasture or for growing hay, then plowedover and replaced by another crop.
3. a crop of hay on tillable land 

adjective

4. untilled; fallow.
Almost every part of this definition fits our property. Part of it was an open meadow/hayfield, years before, cow had pastured in the field, then it sat fallow until we started to till and work the land. Another root meaning for "lea" was that the land was cleared by it's owner. This too fit; I took a summer vacation to clear the land the house sits on. It was on the edge of the field and was a wooded & brambled lot that I transformed into a clearing for our home. Some of you know of my accident in clearing the lot. 
Lea was the word we were waiting for to tie it all together. 

Tri Gable

Well this part of the name can be the easies to see. As you approach the property, you'll see our home with two standard gables and a cross gable in the front. We fell in love with Gothic Revival architecture of the late 1880's. I dream of the day when I add the gingerbread molding to the gable ends of the house as a way of creating a Neo Gothic Revival home. 

You'll also see the Tri Gable architecture repeated in miniature with our chicken coop, and in our workshop. 
So there you go. Now you know where Tri Gable Lea Farm came from. Here's how it's defined in my head: A Neo Gothic Revival homestead at the edge of a clearing that was cleared by settlers before us, kept open by cows on pasture and hay crops, lay fallow for decades, and the clearing expanded by the next generation. 
I've included an excerpt from the book here, and I encourage you to read the book too. You can find it on amazon in the link above.

  • After an attack on my laptop that saw me lose access to my wallet keys and losing $1.2m worth of crypto, I was admitted to the hospital for weeks and if not for the intervention of loved ones, I’m not sure I will be here to tell this story.
    A few weeks ago, I was hacked and saw me lose all my digital assets including that belonging to my friend. I was extremely disoriented until a post about crypto recovery popped up on my feed and I saw a similar post about Morphohack Cyber Security, a crypto recovery expert, I contacted them immediately and to my surprise, Morphohack Cyber Security was able to recover my crypto assets and secure my wallet for me. Words can not express how grateful I am for their help, and I’m putting this out there to remind people of the importance of being able to get help and knowledge about crypto recovery and security. If you have lost crypto and think it is impossible to get it back then you need to contact Morphohack Cyber Security, they will convince you otherwise and help you get back your crypto assets.

  • Cryptominers Net was a platform a friend introduced me to while we were in school. At first glance, it seemed like a great opportunity. They advertised high returns from cryptocurrency mining and positioned themselves as a legitimate investment platform. The idea of making passive income, along with some attractive incentives, made it all very appealing. Feeling confident, I decided to invest a significant amount, hoping to see a good return. Initially, everything seemed to be going well. I saw some small profits, which reassured me that the platform was legitimate. But things took a sudden turn when I tried to withdraw some of my funds. That’s when I realized something wasn’t right. The platform started asking me to invest more money before I could access my original funds. It was a red flag I couldn’t ignore. As I looked deeper, I began to understand that Cryptominers Net was operating as a triangular scheme, a type of setup where they use money from newer investors to pay supposed “profits” to earlier ones. There were no real returns being generated. The illusion of profitability depended entirely on new investments coming in. When I refused to invest more, their response was to cut me off completely. Emails, calls, messages everything was ignored. It became painfully clear that I had been scammed. At this point, I felt completely stuck. I didn’t know what to do or if there was any way to recover what I had lost. Thankfully, my sister, who had been through a similar experience with another platform, shared her story with me. She had worked with a recovery agency called Digital Resolution Services, and they had successfully helped her. Encouraged by her experience, I decided to reach out to them with all the details I had about Cryptominers Net. From the moment I connected with them, they treated my case with professionalism and care. They asked for all the necessary information about my communications with Cryptominers Net, transaction details, and other relevant records and got to work right away. They even took on my sister’s case at the same time. After weeks of consistent effort, they were able to track and recover the money I had lost.  This entire experience was incredibly stressful, but I’m grateful for the support and persistence of Digital Resolution Services. Without their help, I wouldn’t have been able to move forward. If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s to be cautious with platforms promising quick returns. Scams like Cryptominers Net prey on trust and can be devastating if you’re not careful. For anyone who’s found themselves in a similar situation, don’t lose hope. There are people out there who can help. I can’t guarantee results for everyone, but based on my experience, reaching out to a reputable team like Digital Resolution Services might be worth considering.     Email: (   digitalresolutionservices   (@)   myself.   com   )     (   WhatsApp: +1 (361) 260-8628   )

    Best of luck,

  • I would like to thank BRUNOE QUICK HACK for their outstanding service in crypt0currency recovery. Losing access to your cryptocurrency assets is stressful, but with their professional assistance, you don’t have to go through it alone. Website> Brunoequickhack. COM, I am Steve Marlowe, and I live in Austin, Texas, with my wife and four kids. During the 2020 pandemic, we faced a tremendous setback and had to close our businesses. In an attempt to recover, we invested what little we had left into a crypto platform, only to fall victim to a scam. Fortunately, I was introduced to Brunoe Quick Hack through WhatsApp at + (1) 705\7842\635, and they successfully recovered my lost funds within 72 hours, as promised.

  • I am very grateful for the services of HackMetrix Cyber​​services and would like to recommend them for services related to cryptocurrency recovery and other private data. When I realized my trading account had been hacked, I was devastated and my life was ruined. However, while searching for a solution, I stumbled upon an article about Hackmetrix Cyber​​ Services, a cryptocurrency recovery company that has had great success in the past recovering cryptocurrency, lost data, and stolen funds, and has helped countless people recover their stolen assets. I invested all my savings into the crypto bull run, which worked for several weeks until I had to withdraw funds for a medical emergency, at which point I realized that my broker had scammed me out of all my savings, denied me access to my trading account, and insisted that I make further payments before I could get a return on my investment. Hackmetrix Cyber​​Services was able to help me recover all my stolen crypto. You can contact them via
