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.

My life is beautiful because of you, Mein Helfer. Lord Jesus is in my life like a candle in the darkness. You showed me the meaning of faith with your words. I know that even when I cried all day thinking about how to heal, you did not sleep; you were dear to me. I contacted the herbal medicine center DR.GUBA, who lived in West Africa. A friend of mine here in Hamburg is also African. She told me about African herbs, but I was nervous. I am very afraid in Africa because I have heard many terrible things because of my Christianity. God of direction, take a bold step and contact him in the email, then move to WhatsApp, he asked me if I can come for treatment or if I want delivery, I told him I want to know him and buy a ticket 2 ways to go to Africa To meet DR.GUBA, I went there and I was speechless at the people I saw there. Patent, sick people. Itua is a God sent to the world, I told my Pastor what I am doing, Pastor Bill Scheer. We have a real beautiful battle with Spirit and Flesh. Worship the same night. He prayed for me and asked me to lead. I spent 2 weeks and 2 days in Africa at DR.GUBA Herbal Home. After the treatment, he asked me to meet his nurse for an HIV test. When I did it, it was negative, I asked my friend to take me to another nearby hospital when I arrived, it was negative. I was too white with the result, but happy inside me. We went with DR.GUBA, I thanked him, but I explained to him that I do not have enough thanks, that he understands my situation, but I promise that he will testify about his good work. Thank God for my dear friend, Emma, I know I could read this now, I want to thank you. And thank you very much to DR.GUBA Herbal Center. He gave me his calendar which I put on my wall in my house.
