Carley grew up on

keeping a nice yard comes
natural to both Carley and

with a variety o f interesting
shrubs and perennials.
The Drakes use rus
tic farm implements, large
boulders, driftwood and an
old stove as yard accents.
At age 14, Doug brought
home three small tree starts
and heeled them in by a
raspberry patch in the back
yard. The raspberries are
long gone, but the starts are
now three towering, close
growing pines. They help
shade the kennel o f Josie,
the family dog.
A large, heavy-duty
swing set rem ains in the
yard although children Amy
and Kevin are grown. This
summer, A m y’s w edding
was held in the Drake’s back
yard and young guests used
the swings throughout the
ceremony. The home and
yard also host the Drake
family reunion every other
year.
When asked if he

jo k es that after w orking
outside or in his shop all
day that he likes “to sit in
the house and look out at the
yard.” After being a part of
such a long family tradition
o f hard work, that sounds
like a good idea.
