The humble adobe on Lehi street..

Today, I went down to visit my family in Mesa. I decided to take some pictures. Beside taking the pictures, it was very good to see the family from mom's side. At least, no drama this time which is surprising for me.





This is a room in the barn where my great grandpa spent the last part of his life because my great grandma and he split up for some reason.





The house that my great grandma lived when my great grandpa lived in the barn. It's currently being rented out to somebody.



The tree that kids from different generations would climb on and play. It was planted by my great grandma.



The mini orchard in the front of my grandma's house. When it's in the season, you can find all kinds of citrus fruits hanging on the branches. It's very fragrant on the hot summer day.



The very canal that I would play in when I was kid. It drove mom nut that I would play in the canal.





The house that my dad built for our family minus the cumbersome fence and horses... I lived there for 10 years until I was forced to move to Gilbert. But I know that I am glad to be out of that part of Mesa!

A lot of good memories.... My neighbors was my aunts, uncles, grandparent, and cousins.
