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.

  • REGAIN ACCESS WITH THE HELP OF A SPECIALIZED CRYPTO RECOVERY SERVICE / REVENANT CYBER HACKER
    
    GET IN TOUCH WITH A PROFESSIONAL CRYPTO ASSET RECOVERY SPECIALIST NEAR YOU. My encounter with REVENANT CYBER HACKER proved to be fortuitous. Just recent, I was encumbered by a challenging situation and financial challenges stemming from an unsuccessful cryptocurrency venture. The preceding months had been exceptionally difficult. I encountered an incident that nearly destroyed my business and eroded the confidence I had built with my business associates over a long while. I was a victim of cryptocurrency-related fraud. I not only lost my capital but also incurred substantial debt from my associates over several months, in an effort to ensure the success of this cryptocurrency investment; however, I was instead overwhelmed by debt. I was denied the opportunity to withdraw my funds or to terminate my involvement with this investment platform. I subsequently discovered REVENANT CYBER HACKER , a private investigative and cryptocurrency asset recovery specialist. I learned of their assistance to numerous victims of online fraudulent schemes and how they managed to recover their lost funds. I am profoundly grateful to REVENANT CYBER HACKER for their honesty and compassion throughout the process of assisting me in the successful recovery of my crypto and the profit I believed to have lost on this platform. I intend to publicly acknowledge the exceptional professionalism and organizational capabilities of REVENANT CYBER HACKER, a private investigative and cryptocurrency asset recovery specialist. The loss of millions of dollars in cryptocurrency would have significantly destabilized my life, but due to the intervention of the REVENANT CYBER HACKER team, who facilitated the recovery of my lost and compromised cryptocurrency, this was averted. I offer a prayer for the continued blessings upon the REVENANT CYBER HACKER

  • How I Recovered My Stolen Bitcoin in Less Than 48 Hours: A Hard Lesson with a Surprising Turn

    In early 2025, I made what I believed was a life-changing decision — to invest in a cryptocurrency opportunity recommended by someone I trusted. The platform appeared legitimate: sleek interface, responsive support, and regular profit updates. Encouraged by what I saw, I invested $350,000 — essentially my entire savings.

    Within a few months, my account balance had grown to an impressive $618,000. I felt like I had finally cracked the code to financial freedom.

    Then everything unraveled.

    The moment I attempted my first withdrawal, the platform went dark. My emails were ignored. My login credentials stopped working. Then came the demands — I had to pay “release fees” and “security clearance charges” to access my funds. That’s when the realization hit me like a brick: I’d been scammed.

    The hours that followed were filled with panic, disbelief, and heartbreak. I felt utterly helpless, betrayed, and defeated. But somewhere amid the chaos, I forcedHow I Recovered My Stolen Bitcoin in Less Than 48 Hours: A Hard Lesson with a Surprising Turn
    myself to act quickly.

    After reading several warnings about fake “crypto recovery agents,” I stumbled across a cybersecurity and blockchain recovery firm that had legitimate references, real case studies, and no exaggerated promises. I contacted them immediately.

    To my surprise, they responded within the hour. I was asked to provide all relevant transaction details, wallet addresses, and communication records with the scammers. They explained how they would use advanced blockchain analytics to trace the stolen assets — and they got to work without delay.

    Astonishingly, within 48 hours, they were able to trace and freeze a significant portion of the stolen funds on an exchange wallet the scammers had used to move the crypto. Thanks to swift action and coordination with the exchange’s compliance team, $278,000 of my funds were recovered and returned to my wallet.

    It felt surreal. Just two days earlier, I was sure everything was lost. Now, a large part of my investment had been saved.

    If you’ve fallen victim to a crypto scam, don’t waste time — take action immediately, but do it wisely. The right help can make all the difference, sometimes faster than you think. You can either contact them through E-mail at ( Spyhost @cyberdude.com) or whatsapp at ( ‪+1 (228) 313‑3152‬). Remember delay is dangerous so act now.
