March 2022 YOTM Winner
MARCH YARD-OF-THE-MONTH
The March Yard of the Month is awarded to the Barnettes' at 1506 Calveryman Lane.
The Barnettes have lived in the Settlement for 38 years and have five grown children, five grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
Mike is now retired and has been enjoying his retirement for the last four years. In retirement he has been delighting in his hobbies where he works on classic cars and is a self-proclaimed model railroad fanatic. Peggy works as a Paralegal and has worked downtown for the past forty years. In Peggy’s free time she enjoys weaving and knitting. Peggy also spins her own yarn!
The Barnette’s yard is beautifully landscaped with two live oaks and a large sago palm which are original to the house. Unfortunately, their other sago palm was lost in the freeze of ’21. Their flowerbeds are embellished with purple heart, agapanthus, foxtail, and asperagus ferns. You will also find variegated ginger, assorted ornamental grasses and flowering annuals, currently pansies.
The Barnettes have loved living in the Settlement all these years in part due to their great neighbors. Mike and Peggy find joy in visiting with their neighbors while walking their dog and remarked that “raising a family here was a real joy.”
Congratulations Mike and Peggy Barnette on receiving our Yard of the Month award for March 2022. Thank you for contributing to the beauty of our neighborhood for so many years.
