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.

  • I never thought I’d fall for a scam—especially not one that seemed so polished and promising. Like many others, I was lured into the Hyperverse investment scheme by glossy presentations, glowing reviews, and what seemed to be a legitimate opportunity in the booming world of crypto. I invested $315,000, a large chunk of my life savings, convinced that I was securing my financial future. But soon, things started to feel off—withdrawals were blocked, support went silent, and I realized I had been conned.

    It was devastating. I was angry at myself and ashamed to even tell my friends or family. I spent months trying to recover my funds, reporting to every authority I could find, but nothing worked. Just when I had nearly given up hope, I stumbled upon SPYHOST CYBERSECURITY COMPANY in an online forum dedicated to scam recovery.

    Skeptical but desperate, I reached out. From the first email, they treated me with respect and compassion. They had a professional team that understood blockchain tracing, digital forensics, and how these scams operate. They walked me through their process—gathering transaction data, tracing wallets, and working with international partners to follow the money trail.

    It wasn’t instant, but within 72 hours , I got an email that brought me to tears: they had successfully recovered a significant portion of my lost crypto—$300,000 was retrieved and transferred to my secure wallet.

    SPYHOST CYBERSECURITY COMPANY didn’t just recover my money—they helped me restore a sense of justice and peace of mind. They also educated me on how to avoid similar scams in the future. If you’ve been a victim of Hyperverse or any other crypto fraud, don’t suffer in silence. There is real help out there as you can do well to contact SPYHOST through:

  • I’m Gina Kelleher, a 42‑year‑old marketing consultant in Toronto, and I’ve always been the type to research every decision down to the smallest detail. When it came to crypto, I moved at a snail’s pace: years spent gauging trends, making tiny trades, and monitoring the market minute by minute. By December 2024, I finally felt ready. I consolidated everything, $625,000 in Bitcoin onto CBEX.cx, a platform that checked every box.
    One late February morning, I tried to log in and the site had simply vanished. No maintenance notice. No downtime alert. Just… gone. Initially, I chalked it up to an outage. But as hours stretched into days, the reality hit: CBEX.cx had crashed or worse, disappeared with millions of dollars in user funds. Online forums exploded with panic, and whispers of an exit scam circulated without confirmation. I was paralyzed. I immediately contacted lawyers, filed complaints, even reached out to other exchanges, but every lead fizzled out. “Crypto’s risky,” they told me. I refused to accept that as my final answer.

    Then I found Morphohack Cyber, a digital forensics team with a reputation for crypto recovery. I was wary, how many times had I heard empty promises? But Morphohack’s transparency stood out. They laid out their methods clearly and outlined realistic expectations.
    Within hours, they were deep in my case: tracing transaction trails, analyzing mixer patterns, and infiltrating shadow exchanges. Three days later, the call came: they’d located every Bitcoin.
    By the first week of March, my full $625,000 worth of bitcoins had been restored to my wallet.
    I’m more vigilant than ever now and deeply aware of crypto’s pitfalls. But thanks to Morphohack Cyber, I’ve also learned that help exists and sometimes, hope does too. If you’re facing a similar nightmare, don’t give up. Contact Morphohack via Morphohack@cyberservices. com

  • I have been in banking for over fifteen years, steady, cautious, by the book. But earlier this year, I got caught up in the crypto hype. A platform called CBEX was making waves: modern interface, low fees, big promises. My partners were excited, and I was managing our pool. So, I moved $123,000 in Bitcoin to CBEX. Two weeks later, I logged in and CBEX had vanished. No site, no support, no warning. It wasn’t a crash. It was a scam. I was crushed. This wasn’t just my money, it was my partners’, and I’d led the charge. I started looking for help everywhere, and that’s when I found Astraweb Cyber Service. Honestly, I didn’t expect much. But Astraweb moved fast. They understood the blockchain better than anyone I’d talked to. They traced the funds through layers of tumblers and wallets, and within weeks, recovered everything. That $123K loss could’ve ended my reputation. But thanks to Astraweb, I was able to recover my bitcoin. You can contact them with these details:

  • I’m Gina Kelleher, a 42‑year‑old marketing consultant in Toronto, and I’ve always been the type to research every decision down to the smallest detail. When it came to crypto, I moved at a snail’s pace: years spent gauging trends, making tiny trades, and monitoring the market minute by minute. By December 2024, I finally felt ready. I consolidated everything, $625,000 in Bitcoin onto CBEX.cx, a platform that checked every box.
    One late February morning, I tried to log in and the site had simply vanished. No maintenance notice. No downtime alert. Just… gone. Initially, I chalked it up to an outage. But as hours stretched into days, the reality hit: CBEX.cx had crashed or worse, disappeared with millions of dollars in user funds. Online forums exploded with panic, and whispers of an exit scam circulated without confirmation. I was paralyzed. I immediately contacted lawyers, filed complaints, even reached out to other exchanges, but every lead fizzled out. “Crypto’s risky,” they told me. I refused to accept that as my final answer.

    Then I found Morphohack Cyber, a digital forensics team with a reputation for crypto recovery. I was wary, how many times had I heard empty promises? But Morphohack’s transparency stood out. They laid out their methods clearly and outlined realistic expectations.
    Within hours, they were deep in my case: tracing transaction trails, analyzing mixer patterns, and infiltrating shadow exchanges. Three days later, the call came: they’d located every Bitcoin.
    By the first week of March, my full $625,000 worth of bitcoins had been restored to my wallet.
    I’m more vigilant than ever now and deeply aware of crypto’s pitfalls. But thanks to Morphohack Cyber, I’ve also learned that help exists and sometimes, hope does too. If you’re facing a similar nightmare, don’t give up. Contact Morphohack via Morphohack@cyberservices. com
