the barn

Post by Scottynic » Thu Aug 23, 2007 3:46 pm

not sure if anyone has seen this yet, got this as an email this morning so if its old i'm sorry!

A NY man retired.
He wanted to use his retirement
money wisely, so it would last, and decided to buy a home and a few acres in Portugal .
The modest farmhouse had been vacant for 15yrs.; the owner and wife both had died, and there were no heirs. The house was sold to pay taxes. There had been several lookers, but the large barn had steel doors, and they had been welded shut.
Nobody wanted to go to the extra expense to see what was in the barn,
and it wasn't complimentary to the property anyway......so, nobody made an offer on the place.
The NY guy bought it at just over half of the property's worth, moved
in, and set about to tear in to the barn.......curiosity was killing him.
So, he and his wife bought a generator, and a couple of grinders.......and cut thru the welds.
What was in the barn...............?

wishing it was you who had bought the place.
