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 name is Kárpáti Sebestyén. I’m 61 years old, a retired Hungarian medical doctor, and earlier this year, I went through one of the most difficult experiences of my life.
I was the victim of a carefully orchestrated investment scam that drained me of everything I had—$715,000, my entire life savings. It was more than just financial loss. It was shock, disbelief, and the overwhelming fear that everything I had worked for was gone forever.
Just when I thought there was no way out, I came across a company called SPYHOST. I was skeptical at first—after all, I had just been scammed—but something told me to give it a chance. And to my absolute amazement, they recovered every cent I lost within 48 hours.
It still feels unreal. In a matter of days, my despair turned into relief. Spyhost didn’t just recover my funds—they gave me back peace of mind, dignity, and a second chance at life.
If you’ve lost money to a crypto or digital asset scam, please don’t give up. There is hope. I can’t recommend Spyhost enough—they were a godsend when I needed it most.

I don’t usually share personal stories like this, but if it helps even one person avoid what I went through—or gives someone the hope to fight for what they’ve lost—then it’s worth it.
Don’t lose hope. Help is out there.
I am so excited to share with you my greatest testimony how Dr Marcus made me achieve my dreams after 10 years of playing the lottery. I saw a couple of comments about him several years ago. I wondered how it was possible. Until it finally works for me the numbers he gave me were what I played, I’m still in shock. I, a Lapeer county man, won the $1,000,000 power ball, the only word I can use to describe the feelings of finding out that I have won the 1 million dollars is shocking. I am just now believing that this is real. dr marcus is indeed a powerful man. You can reach him at drmacusspellcaster@gmail.com or whatsapp him at +234 811 049 2028.
As a seasoned business owner, I’ve always approached investments with caution. So when I decided to diversify into cryptocurrency, I researched thoroughly and chose what looked like a legitimate platform. The site was polished, the interface smooth, and the reviews convincing. I invested $82,000 and began trading. For a few days, everything seemed normal my account showed gains, and I received regular updates. But when I tried to withdraw, the problems started. My request was delayed, my account was locked, and support went silent. Soon after, the entire website vanished.I felt blindsided. A colleague referred me to Astraweb, a firm that recovers stolen crypto. I contacted them the same day and was quickly connected with a recovery expert. They reviewed my case, analyzed the transactions, and confirmed I’d been targeted by a known scam network. Astraweb’s team began tracing my funds through the blockchain. Despite attempts to hide the trail using mixers and multiple wallets, they located the final destination a wallet on a small exchange overseas. Within two days, Astraweb submitted a legal freeze request. Thanks to their swift action and legal network, my entire $82,000 was recovered within five days. I was relieved and impressed. Astraweb was fast, professional, and transparent throughout. They also helped me secure my wallets and avoid future scams.
If you’ve been scammed by a fake exchange, don’t wait. The faster you act, the better your chances.
