The second half of my childhood was spent on this property, as Wayne is my stepfather. We were always working on something between school and athletic events. I had my hands in the construction of many of those buildings, some more than others as I've always helped a little bit whenever I've been able to visit. Hope everyone enjoys the travels through history this place provides!

The man, himself, is a national treasure. His work is amazing.
-
Wayne is irreplaceable, how many men like him are still around. Amazing detail in the craftsmanship of tools. Thank you for the fascinating tour, a reminder of the tough people that built this country and strength, ingenuity they had in a pre-electric world.
-
This man is such an absolute treasure. I never knew I had such an interest in bricks or butter churns until your visits with Wayne!
-
What a hobby. What a passion. What a collection he got and so organized. Everything labeled like a museum in a garden. So knowledgeable of every piece he got. I wish him more visitors come to his garden.
-
What a wonderful man!! Wayne thank you for your passion and saving these wonderful collection!!
-
We lost a lot when people were encouraged to sell their land to move to cities to be packed like sardines while longing for the fresh air and real life on a farm. It may have been hard but it was healthier mentally and physically. Great video and admirable gentleman curator.
-
First lawn mower was invented in 1830's, but i've never seen that design. So interesting!
-
So lovely please tell the gentleman thank you for sharing
-
He sure is an ambitious collector 🌸💚🙃
-
I remember that video. I immediately shared it with my four daughters. It struck such a cord with me. I can't wait to watch this one to learn more.....my mind staggers at the thought of all the tools farmers, ranchers, homesteaders thought up and handmade to do a specific job on their place and they are now laying around and nobody knows what they are all about.
-
Great editing and thanks Summer for giving Wayne a platform to show his collection and all the hard work that went into it.
-
This was amazing. Thanks for doing another visit Summer. I can listen to this man all day long talking about all his treasures. Thank you Mr Myers for teaching us all about the history of these old items. Oh, yes a return to the brick wall. Every corner or turn holds something different to take in. I was glued to the screen.

My daughter and I collect old milk bottles from Golden Guernsey dairy, my husbands grandfather was one of the founders of Golden Guernsey dairy in Wisconsin.🌸💚🙃
-
Such a beautiful collection of local agricultural equipment and ephemera! I don't know how things work in the US, but I hope one day that Wayne might get some sort of back-up from local government for all his immense curatorial work, the precision research, and the preserving, maintaining, housing/displaying of this important historical archive. It's dedicated people like him, steadily working away in the background, that keep such irreplaceable artefacts (a finite resource) from being lost forever.
-
Thank goodness for people like Wayne Myers who take time to preserve physical manifestations of the knowledge that otherwise might be lost completely. Thank you for making this video.Loved it!
-
Wow. Another really awesome video. Well done! What an amazing man and fantastic collection. He has so much knowledge to share. Love the music ❤️❤️❤️❤️
-
My parents had an old corn sheller that I use to play with as a kid 60 plus years ago, cheap entertainment back in the day.🌸💚🙃
-
I love Wayne and his gardens and buildings and antiques. I miss him and Ithaca so much that these segments are so special and yet so hard to watch, because of the nostalgia and longing for place and people. I have to wait to be in a stronger mindset to watch this because I know it will make me cry 😂
-
So glad you had another visit with Wayne. I love wandering through his collections that are so artfully displayed and so beautifully restored and cared for. He and his property are a true treasure.
