Coming up the Bend

The farmer's wife held her lantern aloft, peering through the dawn fog as if through lidded eyes still clinging to sleep.  It was cold, the kind of cold that crept through the folds of her clothes each time she moved.  They had sold the farm and she did not know what the new year held.

We at Lantern Farms can so easily look back on a year that had trials and triumphs, loads of roadwork, lots of new neighbors moving in to our borough.  Looking to the year ahead, we will see more plantings and improvements in our entranceways, renewed interest in the curb appeal of each home and more return to normalcy with our gatherings.

We plan to move our annual meeting back to this spring, we welcome new neighbors to consider joining us on the board to best connect with their new neighborhood, we encourage families to continue to keep an eye on keeping dumpsters out of apparent sight unless on trash days, we also note no long-term parking of vehicles on the street in front of homes.  We want to keep this one of the premier communities in Fishers for many years to come.

She gripped her light and turned back to home; she knew that change is the one constant in our lives, that though they had held their farm on the southwest corner of Lantern Rd and 131st St. for generations, it was time.  Time for her family to move on, to shine her Lantern down other roads and for this land to host new families instead of farms.  Lantern Farms.
